This will help users retrieve and align partial to full choroplasts.
(Note Plastid and Chloroplast are the same)
****************
Overview:
1. Acquire reference and prepare file
2. Assemble raw (filtered/cleaned) reads to reference
## TO CONSIDER:
There are many different programs to assemble genomes/reads to genes (GetOrganelle, Fast-Plast, RADOrgminer, Hybpiper, PHYLUCE etc)
## WORK IN PROGRESS
