Abstract

The Antarctic Pohlia nutans M211 complete chloroplast (cp) genome, sequenced using Illumina NovaSeq PE150, was 125,199 bp in length. It contained 19,836 bp of inverted repeat (IR) regions that separated a large single-copy region (LSC) of 86,738 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,580 bp. The whole-genome encodes 132 genes (80 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes) and had 29.5% GC content. The M211 was congruent with Sanionia uncinata (KM111545.1) according to the Phylogenetic tree analyses.

Keywords: Pohlia nutans M211; chloroplast genome; phylogenetic tree.
