The complete chloroplast genome of Epimedium fargesii Franch. (Berberidaceae), a rare plant species endemic to China
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Abstract Epimedium L. is a medicinally important herbaceous genus in the family Berberidaceae. Epimedium fargesii Franch. is only narrowly inhabited in the Daba Mountains in China. Here, we sequenced and assembled the first complete chloroplast genome of Epimedium fargesii Franch. The chloroplast genome of E. fargesii was 157,208 bp in length, with a total GC content of 38.77%. A total of 112 unique genes were identified, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that E. fargesii formed a sister relationship with E. wushanense T. S. Ying. Our results provided fundamental data for further taxonomic and phylogenetic research of the genus Epimedium.
