Abstract

Abstract: Bupleurum euphorbioides is a rare native plant attributed with analgesic, gallbladder-supportive, and other functions in China and the Republic of Korea. However, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of the native plant B. euphorbioides has not been determined. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genome sequence, and examined the molecular phylogeny and genetic information of B. euphorbioides . The total chloroplast genome of B. euphorbioides was 154, 871 bp in length with a large single-copy region (85, 089 bp), small single-copy region (17, 714 bp), and pair of inverted repeats regions (26, 034 bp). The chloroplast genome encoded a total of 176 genes, including 131 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree indicated that B. euphorbioides was most closely related to B. latissimum.
