The complete chloroplast genome of Comastoma falcatum (Gentianaceae)

AbstractHere in this work, we have sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of Comastoma falcatum. The complete chloroplast genome size of C. falcatum is 151,423 bp with 81721 bp of LSC, 25727 bp of IRa/IRb and 18248 bp of SSC. The GC contents of its chloroplast genomes are 38.26%. Their chloroplast has a total of 133 unique genes, including 88 of protein-coding genes, 8 of rRNA genes, and 37 of tRNA genes. In the maximum parsimony phylogenetic tree, C. falcatum clustered with Swertia mussotii. This sequenced chloroplast genome of C. falcatum will help to further study the phylogenetic position of Comastoma.
