The complete chloroplast genome of Callicarpa longifolia Lamk. var. floccosa Schauer (Lamiaceae).

Callicarpa longifolia Lamk. var. floccosa Schauer is a species with medicinal and ornamental values. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of C. longifolia var. floccose is reported. The chloroplast genome of this species is 154,285 bp in length and contains a typical circular quadripartite structure. There are two inverted repeats of 25,700 bp, which is separated by a large single-copy region of 85,008 bp and a small single-copy region of 17,877 bp. The complete chloroplast contains 112 distinct genes, including 78 protein-coding, 30 tRNAs and 4 rRNAs genes. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that C. longifolia var. floccose is closely associated with C. formosana.

The complete chloroplast genome of Callicarpa bodinieri (Lamiales, Lamiaceae), an ornamental and medicinal plant from Chongqing, China.

Plants classified to the genus Callicarpa L. have important medicinal and ornamental value. Here, we report and characterize the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. bodinieri to provide molecular basis for the further studies on the phylogeny analysis of this genus. The cp genome is 154,183 bp in length and is organized with a typical quadripartite structure, containing two inverted repeats of 25,701 bp separated by a large single-copy region of 84,956 bp and a small single-copy region of 17,825 bp. The cp genome of C. bodinieri contains 112 distinct genes, including 78 protein-coding, 30 tRNAs and 4 rRNAs genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed that C. bodinieri is fully resolved in a clade with C. nudiflora, sister to the clade of C. formosana and C. longifolia var. floccosa.
