Comments Physical and gene map of the green alga Nephroselmis chloroplast genome, showing the typical structural arrangement found in land plants. Genes located on the inside of the map are transcribed counterclockwise, and genes on the outside are transcribed clockwise. The inner circle shows where the Small Single-Copy region (SSC), Large Single Copy region (LSC) and Inverted Repeats (IR), are located. The thick lines on the actual map are the IRs.
