The complete chloroplast genome of Clematis henryi var. ternata (Ranunculaceae)

Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of Clematis henryi var.ternata was determined in this study. The genome was 159,675 base pair (bp) in length, containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 79,443 bp, a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,100 bp and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 31,066 bp. It contains 130 unique genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The GC content of the complete chloroplast genome sequence was 38.0%. Phylogenetic analyses using complete chloroplast genomes showed that Clematis henryi var.ternata is most closely related to Clematis guniuensis (NC_050373.1).
