Abstract

The complete plastid genome of Chrysanthemum morifolium 'Anhuishiliuye', a Chinese traditional cultivar, was determined and analyzed in this work. It had a circular-mapping molecular with the length of 151,059 bp.The LSC and SSC of 82,857 bp and 18,294 bp were separated by two IRs of 24,954 bp. The chloroplast genome of C. morifolium 'Anhuishiliuye' contains 125 genes, including 83 protein-coding genes, 34 ribosomal RNA genes and 8 transfer RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that C. morifolium 'Anhuishiliuye' clustered together with other Chrysanthemum species. The data provided would be useful for elucidation of phylogenetics and evolution in Chrysanthemum cultivars.

Keywords: Chrysanthemum; Complete plastid genome; chloroplast; phylogenetics and evolution.
