Abstract:
Viola prionantha belongs to the family Violaceae. It has been widely used for a traditional Chinese herb in China. We determined the complete chloroplast genome sequence of V. prionantha. The whole chloroplast genome was 156,501 bp in length, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IR) of 26,404 bp, each, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85,689 bp, and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,004 bp. We annotated 131 genes, including 84 coding sequences, 8 rRNA sequences, 37 tRNA sequences, and 2 pesudogenes. Among the annotated genes Phylogenetic analysis revealed that V. prionantha and Viola seoulensis clustered together as sisters.
