The complete chloroplast genome of <i>Corispermum patelliforme</i> (Amaranthaceae): genome characterization and phylogenetic consideration.

ABSTRACT: Corispermum patelliforme belongs to the family Amaranthaceae and plays a critical role in ecological systems. In this study, we assembled the chloroplast genomes of C. patelliforme for the first time. The result revealing a 150,614 bp circular structure with typical quadripartite organization: 84,222 bp LSC, 19,740 bp SSC, and two 46,652 bp IRs. The genome contains 128 genes and has 36.5% GC content. Phylogenetic analyses (ML/BI) of 15 Amaranthaceae species indicated that C. patelliforme and C. pamiricum forming a monophyletic group, confirming their close relationship. This study advances understanding of chloroplast evolution in Amaranthaceae.
