Abstract:
Rumex nepalensis is a traditional Chinese herb used for detoxification, hemostasis, and anti-inflammatory. In this study, the complete chloroplast sequence of R. nepalensis was characterized from Illumina pair-end sequencing. The cpDNA was 159,044 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeats of 30,623 bp each separated by a large and small single copy region of 84,819 bp and 12,979 bp, respectively. The complete chloroplast genome of R. nepalensis contained 128 genes, 37 tRNA, and 8 rRNA. Phylogenetic tree demonstrated that R. nepalensis was closely related to Rumex acetosa.
