Abstract
Swertia obtusa Ledebour is a perennial herb distributed in China (Xinjiang), Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and Russia. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of S. obtusa using high-throughput sequencing. The length of this genome was 153,874 bp, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 25,855 bp), a large single-copy region (LSC, 83,843 bp), and a small single-copy region (SSC, 18,321 bp). The genome had 113 unique genes, consisting of 4 ribosomal RNA (rRNA), 30 transfer RNA (tRNA), and 79 protein coding sequence genes. A total of 42 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were discovered, primarily in the intergenic spacer region. The analysis revealed 26,255 codons recognized by the anticodons of protein coding genes. Swertia obtusa was classified within the subgenus Swertia based on its entire chloroplast genome.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity (previous title was Journal of Korean Nature) is an official journal of National Science Museum of Korea (NSMK) and Korea National Arboretum (KNA). The scope of journal is wide and multidisciplinary that publishes original research papers, review articles, as well as conceptual, technical and methodological papers on all aspects of biological diversity-its description, analysis and conservation, and its application by humankind. This wide and multidisciplinary journal aims to provide both scientists and practitioners in conservation theory, policy and management with comprehensive and applicable information. However, papers should not be submitted that deal with microorganisms, except in invited paper. Articles that are focused on the social and economical aspects of biodiversity will be normally not accepted.
