Summary: | Paris polyphylla var. chinensis is a species of flowering herb of the family Liliaceae and widely distributed in 12 provinces in China. It has been used in Chinese traditional medicine for centuries. The chloroplast (cp) genome of P. polyphylla var. chinensis, sequenced based on next-generation platform (NEOSAT), is 164,429 bp in size. The cp genome encodes 133 genes, including eight rRNA genes, 87 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and 38 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic relationship analysis based on complete cp genome sequences exhibited that P. polyphylla var. chinensis was most related to Daiswa forrestii. |
