Abstract

Abstract: The whole chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Viburnum schensianum has been characterized from Illumina pair-end sequencing. The complete cp genome was 158, 408 bp in length, containing a large single copy region (LSC) of 86, 998 bp and a small single copy region (SSC) of 18, 386 bp, which were separated by a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26, 512 bp. The genome contained 130 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes (four rRNA species), and a pseudogene. Most genes occur as a single copy, whereas 16 gene species are duplicated. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that V. schensianum is closely related to the species of V. utile.
