The complete chloroplast genome of Epimedium xichangense Y. J. Zhang (Berberidaceae)

Epimedium xichangense, a critically endangered herb with limited population, mainly distributes in Sichuan province, China. In our study, we obtained the complete chloroplast genome of E. xichangense with a length of 158,955 bp, including a large single copy region of 86,478 bp, small single copy re...

Sumario:Epimedium xichangense, a critically endangered herb with limited population, mainly distributes in Sichuan province, China. In our study, we obtained the complete chloroplast genome of E. xichangense with a length of 158,955 bp, including a large single copy region of 86,478 bp, small single copy region of 17,027 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions of 27,725 bp. The GC content in the whole chloroplast genome of E. xichangense is 38.81%. Among the 112 unique genes in the circular genome, 30 tRNA, four rRNA and 78 protein-coding genes were successfully annotated. We constructed the Maximum likelihood (ML) tree with 26 species, and came to the conclusion that E. xichangense was phylogenetically closely related to E. acuminatum and E. chlorandrum.
