The complete plastid genome of Kelloggia chinensis Franch. (Rubiaceae), an endemic species from East Asia.

ABSTRACT: Kelloggia chinensis Franch. is an herbal plant species endemic to East Asia. Its complete plastid genome sequence is 155, 665 bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85, 788 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 16, 977 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26, 450 bp. The whole plastid genome contains 132 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content of K. chinensis plastid genome is 37.1%. K. chinesis is evolutionarily close to tribe Rubieae according to the Maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis based on 12 taxa.
