The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Veratrum oxysepalum and phylogenetic analysis

摘要

Veratrum oxysepalum Turcz. is a medicinal plant belonging to Melanthiaceae occurring in Northeast China. However, there are still limited genomic resources available for genus Veratrum . The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of V. oxysepalum was determined and analyzed in this study. The complete cp genome was 153,705?bp. That contains a large single copy (LSC) region of 83,384?bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,607?bp, which were separated by a pair of 26,358?bp inverted repeat regions (IRs). A total of 135 genes were annotated, including 83 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNAs, and eight rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis using total chloroplast genome sequence of 21 species revealed that V. oxysepalum was closely relates to V. patulum of Veratrum with 100% bootstrap value.
