Sargassum hemiphyllum (Turner) C. Agardh is an important brown macroalga. In this study, we presented the complete chloroplast genome of its variety S. hemiphyllum var. chinense using genome skimming approach. Circular mapping revealed its sequence length was 124,319 bp, with a large single-copy region (LSC, 73,505 bp) and a small single copy region (SSC, 39,922 bp) separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 5446 bp). Its chloroplast genome contained 173 genes, including 139 protein-coding, 6 rRNA, and 28 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that S. hemiphyllum var. chinense was closely related with S. confusum.The Indian leafwing butterfly Kallima paralekta (Horsfield, 1829) (Nymphalidae) is an Asian forest-dwelling, leaf-mimic. Genome skimming by Illumina sequencing permitted assembly of a complete circular mitogenome of 15,200 bp from K. paralekta consisting of 79.5% AT nucleotides, 22 tRNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs and a control region in the typical butterfly gene order. Kallima paralekta COX1 features an atypical CGA start codon, while ATP6, COX1, COX2, ND4, ND4L, and ND5 exhibit incomplete stop codons completed by 3' A residues added to the mRNA. Phylogenetic reconstruction places K. paraleckta within the monophyletic genus Kallima, sister to Mallika in the subfamily Nymphalinae. These data support the monophyly of tribe Kallimini and contribute to the evolutionary systematics of the Nymphalidae.Corylopsis multiflora Hance var. nivea Chang is a variety of the species C. multiflora in the family Hamamelidaceae and is classed as critically endangered (CR) in the Red List of China Higher Plants. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of this taxon (as C. multiflora var. nivea in GeneBank, accession number MW043717) was reported in this study. The genome size is 158,993 bp in length, consisting of a pair of inverted repeat regions (IR, 26,213bp), large single copy (LSC, 87,895bp) and small single copy (SSC, 18,672bp). A total of 133 genes were annotated that included 87 protein coding genes (PCGs), 37 transfer RNA (tRNAs), and 8 ribosome RNA (rRNAs) and 1 pseudo gene. GC content were 38.01%. The Bayesian phylogeny tree showed that C. multiflora var. nivea formed a monophyletic branch with Corylopis coreana and Corylopsis spicata.Lysimachia christinae Hance is widely distributed in subtropical China at the elevational range from 500-2300 m. The species is an important medicinal herb for treating jaundice, urinary disorders, and the liver. Here, we sequenced and characterized the whole plastid genome of L. christinae. It is 154,810 bp in length, containing two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions (26,034 bp, each), a large single-copy (LSC) region (84,809 bp), and a small single-copy (SSC) region (17,933 bp). It has 114 genes, of which 80 are protein-coding, 30 are tRNA, and 4 are rRNA genes. The ML tree indicates L. christinae is closely related to Lysimachia congestiflora Hemsl. This genome information can help us better construct a backbone phylogeny of Lysimachia in the future.In this study, we determined for the first time the mitochondrial genome sequence of an Aedes flavopictus specimen collected in South Korea. Its mitochondrial genome was 16,060 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, and 2 rRNA genes and a non-coding A + T rich region. The overall base composition in the heavy strand was 39.7, 8.6, 12.7, and 39% of A, G, C, and T, respectively, and the G + C content was 21.2%. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Aedes spp. formed a monophyletic clade.Gynochthodes cochinchinensis previously known as Morinda cochinchinensis is considered as potential medicinal plant in family Rubiaceae. In this paper, the complete chloroplast genome of G. cochinchinensis was sequenced and characterized for the first time. The cp genome of G. cochinchinensis was 153,022 bp in length containing a large single copy region (83,799 bp), a small single copy region (17,591 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (25,816 bp). It has a total of 131 genes, comprising of 86 protein-coding genes, eight rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Gynochthodes cochinchinensis together with Gynochthodes officinalis were closely related to genus Morinda.Hippuris vulgaris is an aquatic perennial herb distributed worldwide. In this research, the complete chloroplast genome of H. vulgaris was sequenced and assembled. Its complete genome size was 152,698 bp in length. The typical quadripartite structure was shown, which contained a large single-copy region (82,940 bp), a small single-copy region (18,262 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (25,748 bp). The CG content of this genome was 37.6%. A total of 114 genes have been identified in the genome, including 80 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. In addition, 18 genes possessed at least one intron. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that H. vulgaris was nested in Plantaginaceae with 100% bootstrap value and was a sister to Digitalis, Plantago, Hemiphragma, Veronica and Veronicastrum.Canavalia gladiata is a member of genus Canavalia, which includes 60 species around world. And the species in genus of Canavalia have similar character so we use complete chloroplast genome to identify C. gladiata and other species. Here, we assembled and analyzed the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. gladiata. The cp genome of C. gladiata is 157,923 bp, with a total GC content of 34.6%. The complete cp genome has a typical quadripartite structure, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 77,660 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,945 bp and two inverted repeat (IRS) regions of 30,659 bp. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/emricasan-idn-6556-pf-03491390.html The complete cp genome contains 136 genes, including 91 protein-coding genes, 37tRNA and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis result showed that C. gladiata is closely related to C. rosea.The complete chloroplast genome of a local rare fern species Drynaria acuminata was sequenced. The genome has a length of 151,591 bp with 40.8% GC content, with in total 131 genes were annotated, including 88 protein genes, 35 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. This work provides basic information for its phylogeographical and conservation research.
