%0 Journal Article %T The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Liparis japonica (Orchidaceae) %A Jianfang Li %A Qian Yang %A Zhan-Lin Liu %J Mitochondrial DNA Part B %D 2019 %R https://doi.org/10.1080/23802359.2019.1636728 %X Abstract The Orchidaceae contains numerous species with great ecological and economic values. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of Liparis japonica was presented by next-generation sequencing technologies. The cpDNA is 152,084£¿bp in length with a large single copy region (LSC) of 85,398£¿bp, a small single copy region (SSC) of 14,774£¿bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 25,956£¿bp. It contains 132 genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 7 pseudogenes. The overall GC content is 37.0%, while the corresponding values in the LSC, SSC, and IR region are 34.3, 30.0, 43.5%, respectively. The phylogenetic analysis shows that Liparis japonica is sister to Liparis loeselii and the genus Liparis is closely related to Dendrobium %U https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23802359.2019.1636728
