The complete chloroplast genome of Epimedium sagittatum (Sieb. Et Zucc.) Maxim. (Berberidaceae), a traditional Chinese herb

Epimedium sagittatum is an important traditional medicinal plant in China. In this study, we assembled the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of E. sagittatum. The whole cp genome of E. sagittatum is 157,114 bp in length, comprising a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (25,775 bp) separated by a lar...

Description
Summary:Epimedium sagittatum is an important traditional medicinal plant in China. In this study, we assembled the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of E. sagittatum. The whole cp genome of E. sagittatum is 157,114 bp in length, comprising a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (25,775 bp) separated by a large single copy (LSC) region (88,507 bp) and a small single copy (SSC) region (17,057 bp). The E. sagittatum cp genome contains 133 genes, of which 82 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes and 5 pseudogenes. Phylogenetic analysis shows that E. sagittatumis closely clustered with E. lishihchenii. This genome provides a wealth of information for distinguishing of Epimedium species.
