The complete chloroplast genome of Angelica sylvestris the type species of the genus Angelica (Apiaceae)

摘要

Angelica sylvestris L. is the type species of the genus Angelica L., which was considered as one of the largest and most complicated groups in the family Apiaceae. The complete chloroplast genome of A. sylvestris was determined for the first time, and revealed a circle quadripartite structure of 146,910 bp in length comprising a large single-copy region (LSC) of 93,503 bp, a small single-copy region (SSC) of 17,833 bp and a pair of inverted regions (IRs) of 17,787 bp each. Based on the reported chloroplast genomes of Apioideae, phylogenetic analyses suggested that A. sylvestris was located in the Angelica group together with most Angelica species, which coincided with previous molecular systematic research.
