Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Pedicularis shansiensis Tsoong was determined and described. The circular chloroplast genome is 151,902 bp in length and contains a large single-copy region of 83,180 bp, a small single-copy region of 17,284 bp and two inverted repeat regions of 25,719 bp. The chloroplast genome contains 132 genes, including 86 protein-coding, 8 rRNA, and 38 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis shows Pedicularis species cluster together and P. shansiensis forms a clade with P. dissect.

Keywords: Chloroplast genome; Pedicularis shansiensis; phylogenetic analysis.
