The complete chloroplast genome sequence of the medicinal plant, Angelica gigas (Apiaceae).

ABSTRACT: The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Angelica gigas, a traditional herbal plant used in treating diseases, was obtained by de novo assembly using illumina sequencing data (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA). The circular molecule of the genome was constructed of four parts, with a size of 146,916?bp in total - a large single copy (LSC) region of 93,118?bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,582?bp and two inverted repeat (IRa and IRb) regions of 18,108?bp each. There were a total of 113 annotated genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes and four rRNA genes. The phylogenetic result acquired through maximum parsimony analysis showed that A. gigas is closely related with A. decursiva and Seseli montanum.
