Abstract:
Hydrocotyle pseudoconferta was an important medicinal plant. The complete plastid genome of this species was reported for the first time. The full length of the complete chloroplast genome is 153,302 bp, with a typical quadripartite organization: a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84,417 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,767 bp, and a pair inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb) with 25,059 bp for each. The complete chloroplast genome of H. pseudoconferta encoded 133 genes, comprising 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 2 pseudogenes. The phylogenetic analysis suggested the closest relationship between H. pseudoconferta and Hydrocotyle nepalensis.
