The cultivar of Rehmannia glutinosa (Orobanchaceae) is one of the four famous 'Huai' medicine cultivar species endemic to Henan Province in central China. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of R. glutinosa cultivar Wen 85-5. The cp genome of R. glutinosa cultivar Wen 85-5 was 155,499 bp in length and contained a pair of inverted repeat regions (IR, 25,748 bp) separated by a small single copy (SSC, 17,600 bp) and a large single copy (LSC, 84,403 bp) region. Chloroplast genome sequences of two cultivar of R. glutinosa (Wen 85-5 and Jiwang 1) are identical to each other. The sequence of cp genome of R. glutinosa cultivar Wen 85-5 was 99.70% similar to the wild population of R. glutinosa. Some distinctive insert and deletion in R. glutinosa cultivar Wen 85-5 by comparison with wild population were reported. The maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis revealed that R. glutinosa cultivar Wen 85-5.was sister to the R. glutinosa cultivar Jiwang 1 (BS = 100%), and further clustering with R. glutinosa (BS = 100%). This result will be helpful for the conservation and breeding programs of the cultivar of R. glutinosa.Curculigo orchioides Gaertn. distributed in subtropical regions of Asia including southern China and India. The plant is used as a traditional medicine in China for the treatment of menorrhagia, osteoporosis, and other gynecological problems. The complete chloroplast genome was reported in this study using the Illumina NovaSeq platform. The whole genome of this species was 157,472 bp in length, with a total GC content of 37.44%. The large single copy (LSC) was 86,507 bp, the small single copy (SSC) was 16,867 bp, and both of the two inverted repeats (IRs) were 27,049 bp, respectively. A total of 132 unique genes were identified, among which are 86 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that C. orchioides was highly clustered with C. capitulata.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/remodelin.html  Our study will provide useful fundamental data for further phylogenetic and evolutionary studies of C. orchioides.Incarvillea sinensis Lam. is the type of the genus Incarvillea Juss., and it is widely distributed, relative to other members of the genus. In this paper, we sequenced, assembled and annotated the chloroplast genome of Incarvillea sinensis. The complete chloroplast genome is 162,088 bps in size, with overall GC content of 39.4%. We annotated 113 unique genes in the plastome sequence, including 79 protein coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast genome sequences resulted in a different resolution on the relationships among subgenera from the former.Corydalis DC., the largest genus of Papaveraceae, was recognized as one of the most taxonomically challenging plant taxa. Due to the lack of genetic information used in previous studies, species discrimination and taxonomic assignment in Corydalis have not been fully solved. Here, the complete chloroplast genomes were reported for Corydalis edulis Maxim. and Corydalis shensiana Liden, with their genome sizes being 154,395 and 155,938 bp, respectively. Both of the chloroplast genomes comprise two inverted repeat (IR) regions, separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region and a small single-copy (SSC) region, and encode 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, 37 transfer RNA genes. Our study will provide novel insight into the molecular phylogeny and classification of Corydalis.Nardostachys jatamans is an endemic herb in China, distributes mainly in Southeast Gansu, South Qinghai and West Sichuan of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome (a typical quadripartite structure) sequence of N. jatamans was reported. The length of the DNA molecule was 155,268 bp with a large single-copy region (LSC 87,263 bp), small single-copy region (SSC 17,327 bp) and inverted repeats (IRa and IRb 25,339 bp). The overall GC content was 38.56%. It has a total of 129 genes, containing 83 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis has shown that N. jatamans is sister to Valeriana offcinalis. The chloroplast genome provides the basis for development and utilization of N. jatamans in future.In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Huangshan Black chicken (HBC). Results showed that the complete HBC mitogenome was 16,785 bp in size, comprising 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and 1 non-coding control region (D-loop). The overall nucleotide composition was 32.5% for C, 30.3% for A, 23.7% for T, and 13.5% for G. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the HBC mitogenome was clustered with Xianju chicken, which belonged to the haplogroup D2. Our results therefore demonstrate that the origin of HBC corresponds to haplogroup D2 distribution and might have at least one maternal lineage originated from Southeast Asia.The black-spotted stout newt (Pachytriton brevipes) is widely distributed in the mountains of southeastern China. In this study, we sequenced and determined the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenomes) of two P. brevipes samples collected in Mount Wuyi. The assembled mitogenomes were 16,298 bp and 16,301 bp in length, and contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, one non-coding region, and one control region. The phylogenetic analysis indicated the two samples of black-spotted stout newt grouped together and are the sister group of P. feii.Chlorella vulgaris ITBBA3-12 has a role in the purification of the rubber processing wastewater. Its complete chloroplast genome contains 168369 bp, with a G + C content of 33.0%. A total of 147 genes were annotated, including 113 protein-coding genes, three rRNA (rrn23, rrn16, and rrn5) genes, and 31 tRNA genes. The significant feature of the chloroplast genome is that the genes encoding subunit V (petG), VI (petL), and apocytochrome f (petA) of the cytochrome b6/f complex are in triplicate, which was not observed in the other C. vulgaris strains. Phylogenetic analysis using the chloroplast genomes of Chlorophyta species indicated that ITBBA3-12 is closely related to C. vulgaris strain UTEX259 and NJ-7, and they clustered in the Chlorella lineage.
