Abstract

Abstract: The relationship between Callicarpa rubella Lindl. and its infraspecific taxa has troubled researchers for a long time. Here, we reported for the first time the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. rubella to investigate its phylogenetic position and provide more sequencing information for further studies about the relationship between C. rubella and its related species. The cp genome of C. rubella was 154, 202 bp in length and displayed a typical quadripartite angiosperm structure, containing two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25, 701 bp, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84, 968 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17, 832 bp. It contained 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. The analysis fully resolved C. rubella was in a clade with C. bodinieri and C. nudiflora . The results indicated Callicarpa formed a sister relationship with Dicrastylis parvifolia in Lamiaceae.
