A Comparative Phylogenetic Analysis on the Chloroplast Genome in Different Reynoutria japonica Populations.

ABSTRACT: Reynoutria japonica Houtt., a traditional medicine herb of the Polygonaceae family, has been used since ancient times in China due to its various pharmacological effects. Chloroplast genomes are conservative and play an essential role in population diversity analysis. However, there are few studies on the chloroplast genome of R. japonica. In this study, the complete chloroplast genomes of three R. japonica from different regions were performed by next-generation sequencing technology. The results revealed that the lengths of the three chloroplast genomes are between 163,371~163,372 bp, and they have a highly conserved structure with a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (31,121 bp), a large single-copy (LSC) region (87,571~87,572 bp), and a small single-copy (
