Abstract

Cryptotaenia japonica Hassk. (Apiaceae) is a herbaceous species naturally distributed in China. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of C. japonica was generated by de novo assembly using whole genome next generation sequencing data. The chloroplast genome of C. japonica was 153,259 bp in length and divided into four distinct regions, such as large single copy region (83,462 bp), small single copy region (16,968 bp) and a pair of inverted repeat regions (26,425 bp and 26,406 bp). The genome annotation predicted a total of 133 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis with the reported chloroplast genomes revealed that C. japonica is nested in Apiaceae tribe Oenantheae and has close relationship to Cicuta virosa and Tiedemannia filiformis subsp. Greenmannii.
