The complete chloroplast genome of Verbascum thapsus L. (Scrophulariaceae) and its phylogenetic affinities

Verbascum thapsus L. has extensive pharmacological effects, including antioxidative and antineoplastic action, memory improvement and neuroprotection. However, its phylogenetic position is not established in Scrophulariaceae. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome sequence of V....

Sumario:Verbascum thapsus L. has extensive pharmacological effects, including antioxidative and antineoplastic action, memory improvement and neuroprotection. However, its phylogenetic position is not established in Scrophulariaceae. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome sequence of V. thapsus L. for the first time and investigate its phylogenetic relationship in Scrophulariaceae. The assembled chloroplast genome is a circular 153,338 bp sequence, including a large single copy (LSC) region of 84,627 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,829 bp and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,441 bp. The genome contains 135 genes, including 86 protein coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree showed that V. thapsus is closely associated with V. chinense and V. phoeniceum.
