Genetic map of the chloroplast genomes of Cuscuta epithymum and C. europaea. The transcriptional direction of genes in the outside circle is counter-clockwise, while those in the inside circle are clockwise. The outer circle shows the genes at each locus. The inner circle also shows the GC content graph of the genome, where the dark and light gray lines indicate the GC and AT contents, respectively, at each locus
