Project description:Pimpinella rhomboidea var. tenuiloba is an endemic species in China. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of P. rhomboidea var. tenuiloba was generated by de novo assembly using whole genome next generation sequencing. The genome was 146,655?bp in length, composed of four distinct regions such as large single copy (LSC) region of 94,684?bp, small single copy (SSC) region 17,537?bp and a pair of inverted repeat regions of 17,217?bp. The genome annotation predicted a total of 113 genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis with the reported chloroplast genomes revealed that P. rhomboidea var. tenuiloba has close relationship with genus Angelica.
