Complete chloroplast genome of Clematis taeguensis (Ranunculaceae), an endemic species from South Korea

摘要

The complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Clematis taeguensis Y.N.Lee (Ranunculaceae) was determined to be 159,534?bp in length, consisting of large (79,326?bp) and small (18,338?bp) single-copy regions and a pair of identical inverted repeats (30,935?bp). The genome contains 92 protein-coding genes, 32 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 1 pseudogene (inf A). Phylogenetic analysis of 19 taxa inferred from the chloroplast genome showed a relationship with C. taeguensis , which is also recognized as a species endemic to the Korean Peninsula. The complete cp genome sequence of C. taeguensis reported here provides important information for future phylogenetic and evolutionary studies in Ranunculaceae.
