Abstract:
The complete chloroplast genome of Campanula takesimana, an endemic species to Korea, was determined in this study. The total genome size was 169,551 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 29,742 bp, which were separated by large single copy (LSC) and small single copy (SSC) of 102,320 and 7747, respectively. The overall GC contents of the plastid genome were 38.8%. 131 genes were annotated, including 87 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. In these genes, 17 genes contained one or two introns.
