The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Ostericum koreanum (Apiaceae).

ABSTRACT: Ostericum koreanum Kitagawa is an important herbal medicine, whose taxonomic status has been changed to Angelica reflexa as a new species. This study generated the complete chloroplast genome sequence of O. koreanum, and reconsidered its molecular taxonomic status in Angelica by comparing it with related species. The length of the complete chloroplast genome was 147,282 bp, and there were four structures that included the large single copy region (93,185 bp), the small single copy region (17,663 bp) and the duplicated inverted regions (18,217 bp of each). Based on its phylogenetic trees, O. koreanum was grouped by high bootstrap value with the Angelica species. This result proved that O. koreanum is included in Angelica. Therefore, th
