Abstract

In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis cv 'Yulinglong' was sequenced and assembled by next-generation sequencing. The complete cp genome is 159,376 in length and contained 137 genes, consisting of 91 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 38 transfer RNA genes. Phylogenetic analyses based on chloroplast genomes highly supported that 'Yulinglong' was evolutionarily close to Narcissus tazetta subsp.chinensis, which may provide more desirable information for the phylogenetic relationship between Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis and its relative species.

Keywords: Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis; Yulinglong; complete chloroplast genome; double-petaled; phylogenetic analysis.
