A physical map of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) chloroplast DNA has been generated using SalI, PstI, KpnI and HindIII restriction endonucleases. The circular plastid genome (151 kbp) has the usual inverted repeat. Heterologous probes containing psbA, rbcL, atpA or rrnA structural genes mapped colinearly with spinach and other chloroplast genomes.
