Salvia liguliloba
Y. Z. Sun is a plant species endemic to the Tianmu Mountains. In this study, we assembled the complete chloroplast genome of
S. liguliloba
. The chloroplast genome of
S. liguliloba
was 151,490 bp with quadripartite structure in length, which contained 124 encoded genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 37 transfer RNA genes. Our phylogenetic analysis result based on 54 chloroplast genomes revealed that
S. liguliloba
was closely related to
S. miltiorrhiza
according to the current sampling extent in Lamiaceae.
Salvia chienii
E.Peter is a medicinal herb mainly distributed in Huangshan Mountain of Anhui province, China. In this study, the first complete chloroplast genome of
S. chienii
was sequenced and assembled. The genome length was 151,530 bp and encoded 143 genes (91 protein-coding genes, eight rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes). The phylogenomic analysis showed that
S. chienii
was closely related to
S. miltiorrhiza
. Further evolutionary studies of the genus
Salvia
could benefit from the complete chloroplast genome of
S. chienii
present in this study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
