var. is an epiphytic orchid distributed in the southern China. It has a high ornamental value and always be used as a hybrid parent. In this study, we obtained a complete chloroplast genome of var. from BGISEQ-500 sequencing data. The total chloroplast genome was 155,291 bp in length, consisting of a large single copy region (LSC 84,415 bp), a small single copy region (SSC 17,484 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRA and IRB 26,696 bp). The complete chloroplast genome contains 139 genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 38 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. In addition, the phylogenetic analysis indicates that var. was sister to section , section and section The chloroplast genome will contribute to establish an effective conservation strategy for var. .

Electronic address:

Background: Arnebiae Radix has long been used in traditional medicine for its pleiotropic properties. However, distinguishing Arnebiae Radix from its substitutes or closely related species has been challenging due to limited phenotypic characteristics.

Purpose: We aimed to identify the molecular markers for distinguishing Arnebiae Radix from its confusion species.

The green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a promising host organism for the production of valuable compounds. Engineering the Chlamydomonas chloroplast genome offers several advantages over the nuclear genome, including targeted gene insertion, lack of silencing mechanisms, potentially higher protein production due to multiple genome copies and natural substrate abundance for metabolic engineering. Tuneable expression systems can be used to minimize competition between heterologous production and host cell viability.

Background: Dioscorea polystachya and its closely related species are original plants of the tuber crop "yam", which had been intensively use for medicinal and food purposes and widely cultivated in northern China and its surrounding areas with a long history. Many cultivars of these species are often confused with one another because of similar tuber morphology, however, conventional DNA barcoding faces practical limitations restricting the method to effectively identify closely related species. In addition, phylogenetic relationships among various cultivar groups of Chinese yam (D.

Background: Caryophyllaceae contains 100 genera and 3000 species, many of which are valuable both ecologically and economically. However, as past research has shown, the fundamental phylogenetic relationships of Caryophyllaceae are still debatable, and molecular dating based on chloroplast genomes has not been thoroughly examined for the entire family.

Methods: In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequences of Arenaria kansuensis Maxim.
