Comprehensive analysis of complete chloroplast genome sequence of Plantago asiatica L. (Plantaginaceae).

ABSTRACT: Plantago asiatica L. is a representative individual species of Plantaginaceae, whose high reputation is owed to its edible and medicinal values. However, the phylogeny and genes of the P. asiatica chloroplast have not yet been well described. Here we report the findings of a comprehensive analysis of the P. asiatica chloroplast genome. The P. asiatica chloroplast genome is 164,992 bp, circular, and has a GC content of 37.98%. The circular genome contains 141 genes, including 8 rRNAs, 38 tRNAs, and 95 protein-coding genes. Seventy-two simple sequence repeats are detected. Comparative chloroplast genome analysis of six related species suggests that a higher similarity exists in the coding region than the non-coding region, and differences in the degree of preserva
