Project description:Primulina hedyotidea (Woon Young Chun) Yin Zheng Wang 2011 is an important medicinal plant that has a long history of medicinal use in China. In this experiment, the whole chloroplast genome of P. hedyotidea was determined by next-generation sequencing technology. The total base length of P. hedyotidea was 153,297 bp, the GC content was 37.62%, the inverted repeat (IR) region length was 25,494 bp, the large single copy (LSC) region was 84,158 bp and the small single copy (SSC) region was 18,151 bp. In addition, the genome consisted of 80 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes, and 28 tRNA genes, for a total of 112 genes. A phylogenetic tree was constructed to explore the evolutionary relationship between P. hedyotidea and other species. The findings of phylogenetic tree analysis show that Primulina huaijiensis and P. hedyotidea have a close relationship, and this study can help with species identification and phylogenetic analysis within Primulina and Gesneriaceae species.
