The complete plastid genome sequence of Peucedanum hakuunense Nakai (Apiaceae), an endemic and rare species in Korea

Abstract

Peucedanum hakuunense Nakai is one of the rare species in the Korean Peninsula. This study characterized the complete plastid genome (plastome) sequence of P. hakuunense by de novo assembly with next-generation sequencing data. The complete plastome of P. hakuunense is 147,426 bp in length with a typical quadripartite structure comprising a large single-copy region of 91,915 bp, a small single-copy region of 17,425 bp, and two inverted repeat regions of 19,043 bp in length. The plastome of P. hakuunense is composed of 85 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that two Peucedanum species formed an independent subclade, sister to the subclade of Angelica species within the tribe Selineae.
