Abstract

Primula amethystina subsp. argutidens (Franchet) W. W. Smith & H. R. Fletcher (1942) is a blooming plant of the family Primulaceae. Here, we sequenced, assembled, and annotated the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. amethystina subsp. argutidens. The cp genome of P. amethystina subsp. argutidens is 151,560 bp in length with a GC content of 37%. The assembled genome has a typical quadripartite structure, containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,516 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,692 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,176 bp. The cp genome contains 115 unique genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, four rRNA genes, and 30 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that P. amethystina subsp. argutidens was closely related to P. amethystina.

Keywords: Chloroplast genome; Primula amethystina subsp. argutidens; phylogenetic analysis.
