The complete chloroplast genome of Ardisia brevicaulis Diels 1900, one traditional medicinal plant in southern China.

ABSTRACT: The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Ardisia brevicaulis Diels 1900, one traditionally medicinal plant usually used in southern China, was first assembled and reported in this study. The genome size is 156,742 bp (37.1% GC content), containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 86,329 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,417 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 25,998 bp. 134 genes (89 protein-coding, 37 tRNA, and 8 rRNA genes) are annotated in the whole cp genome, including 115 unique genes (81 protein-coding, 30 tRNA, and 4 rRNA genes). Phylogenetic analysis showed that A. brevicaulis is closely related to A. primulifolia and A. villosa, indicating their close phylogenetic relationship. The cp genome of A. brevicaulis could provi
