Project description:Hippuris vulgaris is an aquatic perennial herb distributed worldwide. In this research, the complete chloroplast genome of H. vulgaris was sequenced and assembled. Its complete genome size was 152,698 bp in length. The typical quadripartite structure was shown, which contained a large single-copy region (82,940 bp), a small single-copy region (18,262 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (25,748 bp). The CG content of this genome was 37.6%. A total of 114 genes have been identified in the genome, including 80 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. In addition, 18 genes possessed at least one intron. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that H. vulgaris was nested in Plantaginaceae with 100% bootstrap value and was a sister to Digitalis, Plantago, Hemiphragma, Veronica and Veronicastrum.
Project description:Two complete chloroplast genomes of Hippuris vulgaris (H. vulgaris_A and H. vulgaris_B), representing two distinct clades in China, were sequenced and assembled in this study. The circular genomes were 152,763 and 152,713 bp in length and exhibit a typical quadripartite structure of the large single-copy (LSC, 82,983/82,949 bp) and small single-copy (SSC, 18,294/18,278 bp) regions, separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, both 25,743 bp). Both two cp genomes identically contain 133 genes, including 88 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA, and eight rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis within Plantaginaceae demonstrated Hippuris an independent clade included in the expanded Plantaginaceae.
