Complete chloroplast genome of Isoetes orientalis (Isoetaceae), an endangered quillwort from China.

ABSTRACT: Isoetes orientalis is an endangered hexaploidy species of Isoetaceae in China and the complete chloroplast genome of this species has not been reported. In the present study, a complete chloroplast genome of Isoetes orientalis (Isoetaceae) was assembled and annotated. This chloroplast genome has a circular structure of 145,504 bp in length, comprising a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 13,207 bp each, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 91,864 bp, and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 27,226 bp. The chloroplast genome contains 136 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that I. orientalis was closely related to I. sinensis. These results provide additional resources for future studies o
