The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Primula filchnerae Knuth (Primulaceae), an endangered species in China

Abstract

Primula filchnerae Knuth is an endangered species endemic to China. Its complete chloroplast genome was reported in this study for the first time. The whole chloroplast genome was 151, 443 base pairs in length with 131 genes, including 66 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNAs, and 4 rRNAs. In addition, the accD was inferred to be a pseudogene. Phylogenetic analysis showed a sister relationship between P. filchnerae and P. sinensis Sabine ex Lindl.
