Complete plastome sequence of Limonium aureum, a medicinal and ornamental species in China.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Limonium aureum is a perennial herb of Plumbaginaceae, and draw the attention of researchers by its medicinal and ecological value. In this study, we first report the complete chloroplast genome of L. aureum with paired-end sequencing method. The results showed that the complete chloroplast genome of L. aureum is 154,661 bp in length with a typical quadripartite structure, including a large single-copy region (LSC, 84,545 bp), a single-copy region (SSC, 12, 980 bp), and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 28,568 bp). There are 113 annotated genes, consisting of 79 unique protein-coding genes, 4 unique ribosomal RNA genes, and 30 transfer RNA genes. Moreover, we constructed a phylogenetic tree with L. aureum and other 34 species based on their complete chloroplast genomes. And the results of the phylogenetic topologies displayed that Plumbago auriculata was closely related to L. aureum. Our results will contribute to the better study and make use of the species.
