Comparative and phylogenetic analysis of the chloroplast genomes of four commonly used medicinal cultivars of Chrysanthemums morifolium.

ABSTRACT: 'Boju' and 'Huaiju' are cultivars of the Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) in the family Asteraceae, valued for their medicinal, tea, and ornamental properties, and valued by individuals. However, the yield and quality of medicinal chrysanthemums are limited by the characteristics of the germplasm resources, including the identification at the varieties and cultivation levels. Currently, research characterizing the chloroplast genomes of medicinal Chrysanthemum flowers is relatively limited. This study conducted chloroplast whole-genome sequencing on two cultivars of Chrysanthemum, 'Boju' and 'Huaiju', and compared them with the previously published chloroplast genomes of 'Hangbaiju' and 'Gongju'. The study analyzed the chloroplast genome structures of these four medicinal Ch
