Abstract

Abstract: Corylopsis microcarpa H.T. Chang 1960 is a relict species from China. The chloroplast genome of C. microcarpa is 159, 438 bp in size and shows typical quadripartite structure, which includes a pair of inverted repeat regions (26, 280 bp), a large single-copy region (88, 185 bp), and a small single-copy region (18, 693 bp). The whole chloroplast genome encodes 114 unique genes, including 80 protein-code genes, 30 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and four ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Ninety-one SSRs were identified. The phylogenetic analysis revealed C. microcarpa diverged early in Corylopsis .
