Characterisation of the complete chloroplast genome of Gentiana delavayi Franch. (gentianaceae), a medicinal plant in southwest of China

Gentiana delavayi is a medicinal plant commonly used in southwest of China. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of G. delavayi to investigate its phylogenetic relationship in the family Gentianaceae. The chloroplast genome of G. delavayi was 151,569 bp in length...

More Information
Summary:Gentiana delavayi is a medicinal plant commonly used in southwest of China. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of G. delavayi to investigate its phylogenetic relationship in the family Gentianaceae. The chloroplast genome of G. delavayi was 151,569 bp in length with 37.8% overall GC content, including a large single copy (LSC) region of 81,177 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 16,921 bp and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,471 bp. The cp genome contained 114 genes, including 78 protein coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated G. delavayi was closely related to G. stipitata.
