The first complete chloroplast genome of Vicatia thibetica de Boiss.: genome features, comparative analysis, and phylogenetic relationships.

ABSTRACT: Vicatia thibetica de Boiss.: a herb in the family Apiaceae, has been used for over a hundred years as an essential medicinal and edible plant in the Bai ethnic group of Dali City. However, due to the lack of study on plastid genomes of V. thibetica, studies of comparison and phylogeny with other related species remain scarce. In the current study, we assembled, annotated, and characterized the entire chloroplast (cp) genome of V. thibetica through high-throughput sequencing for the first time, compared with published whole chloroplast genomes from the same family. A phylogenetic analysis of the chloroplast genome has also been performed. The whole chloroplast genome of V. thibetica was 145,796 in size and consisted of a large single-copy region (LSC; 92,186 bp),
