Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete plastome of Veronica undulata (Plantaginaceae)

Veronica undulata is a perennial herb, and the complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of V. undulata was determined in this study. The results showed that the plastome size of V. undulata was 151,178 bp, including a large single-copy region (68,533 bp), a small single-copy region (21,403 bp), and tw...

Description
Summary:Veronica undulata is a perennial herb, and the complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of V. undulata was determined in this study. The results showed that the plastome size of V. undulata was 151,178 bp, including a large single-copy region (68,533 bp), a small single-copy region (21,403 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (25,566 bp). The total GC content of the plastome was 38.1%. We annotated 115 unique genes in the plastome, including 81 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 30 tRNAs, and four rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the species of V. undulata and Veronica clustered together.
