Abstract
- Wurfbainia neoaurantiaca is a medicinal plant endemic to Yunnan Province, China. In this study, its complete chloroplast genome was assembled and characterized. The total genome size of W. neoaurantiaca was 158,484 bp in length, consisting of a large single-copy region (LSC), a small single-copy region (SSC) and two inverted repeat regions (IRs) with 88,605 bp, 15,285 bp and 29,822 bp, respectively. Its GC content was 36.08%. The chloroplast genome encoded 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding, 30 tRNA, and four rRNA genes. The result of the phylogenetic analysis indicated that W. neoaurantiaca was related to W. villosa var. xanthioides and supported de Boer's classification that W. compacta, W. longiligularis, W. neoaurantiaca, W. villosa, W. villosa var. xanthioides and Amomum krervanh belonged to the Wurfbainia Clade.
