chloroplast genomic information

Chloroplast Genome Database
http://www.cbio.psu.edu/chloroplast/

This database contains annotated chloroplast/plastid genomes from the NCBI Organelle Genomes section at NCBI. You can search for genes by their annotated names, conduct flexible BLAST searches, download protein and nucleotide sequences extracted from a selected chloroplast genome, and browse the putative protein families (tribes) created using TribeMCL.
