Complete chloroplast genome of Isoetes hypsophila (Isoetaceae), the Endangered quillwort in China

Abstract

Isoetes hypsophila Hand.-Mazz. is an Endangered quillwort living in plateau wetlands in China. In the present study, the complete chloroplast genome of I. hypsophila was assembled. It is a circular form of 146,362 bp in length, comprising a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 13,691 bp, a large single copy (LSC) of 91,741 bp, and a small single copy (SSC) of 27,239 bp. After annotation, a total of 135 genes were predicted, which are 84 encode proteins 37 tRNA and 8 rRNA. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that I. hypsophila clustered with a clade of I. sinensis, I. taiwanensis and I. yunguiensis with strong support value. The chloroplast genome will contribute to further research and conservation of I. hypsophila.
