Abstract

Abstract: Sorbus insignis (Hook. f.) Hedl., belonging to S. sect. Multijugae Yu is an epiphytic shrub. Its phylogenetic position is still poorly understood. In this study, we assembled its complete chloroplast genome from whole-genome high-throughput sequencing data. The chloroplast genome was 159, 993 bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 87, 932 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 19, 255 bp, separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26, 403 bp each. It was predicted to contain a total of 132 genes, with an overall GC content of 36.56%. Phylogenetic analysis suggested S. insignis belongs to S. L. sensu stricto and closest to S. prattii Koehne among the published chloroplast genome.
