Abstract:
Coniogramme intermedia Hieron. is a morphologically distinctive species in the genus. It is identified by lanceolate pinnules with serrated margins, free veins, hydathodes extending into teeth, and laminae abaxially hairy. It is mainly distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions of Asia. Herein, we report the first complete chloroplast genome sequence of C. intermedia. Also, it is the opening one of the genus Coniogramme Fée. The chloroplast genome sequence is 153,561 bp in length. The genome has a typical quadripartite structure, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 82,817 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 21,236 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 24,754bp each. The total GC content is 45.0%. The complete plastome sequence contains 114 genes, including, 81 protein-coding, 29 tRNA, and four rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis of Pteridaceae based on the complete chloroplast genomes was also presented in this study.
