Abstract:
Jacobaea maritima is an important horticulture plant in the genus Jacobaea. Here, we assembled the complete chloroplast genome of J. maritima. The chloroplast genome was 153,857 bp in length, with a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) (27,936 bp) separated by a large single-copy region (LSC) (82,771 bp) and a small single-copy region (SSC) (15,214 bp). The complete chloroplast genome contained 112 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed Jacobaea was more closely related to Senecio, Crassocephalum and Gynura. The chloroplast genome of J. maritima can provide data to support future phylogenetic studies of Jacobaea.
