To evaluate the phylogenetic relationships between Hylotelephium and Orostachys, and to provide important information for further studies, we analyzed the complete chloroplast genomes of six Hylotelephium species and compared the sequences to those of published chloroplast genomes of congeneric species and species of the closely related genus, Orostachys. The total chloroplast genome length of nineteen species, including the six Hylotelephium species analyzed in this study and the thirteen Hylotelephium and Orostachys species analyzed in previous studies, ranged from 150,369 bp (O. minuta) to 151,739 bp (H.

- Hisauti and H. Hara is a rare shrub native to specific dolomite regions in South Korea, making it more vulnerable due to its limited distribution.
- This study used genotyping-by-sequencing to analyze the genetic diversity of 94 individuals across six populations, revealing a mean expected heterozygosity of 0.233 and significant genetic differentiation among populations.
- The research emphasizes the need for both in situ and ex situ conservation strategies and suggests six management units to enhance conservation efforts for this endangered species.
The chloroplast (cp) genome sequence is determined and analyzed for for the first time. The cp genome was 150,369 bp in length, containing a large single-copy (LSC) of 82,795 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) of 16,854 bp, which were separated by a pair of 25,360 bp inverted repeats (IRs). The overall G + C content of the cp genome amounted to 37.
