Abstract:Swertia divaricata
Harry Sm., 1965, (Gentianaceae) is a perennial herb endemic to Northwest Yunnan, China, belonging to the species-rich genus
Swertia
. It possesses unique morphological features but its systematic position remains uncertain. To determine its phylogenetic placement, the complete plastid genome of
S. divaricata
was assembled utilizing high-throughput sequencing data. The genome is circular, spanning 152,073 bp, and comprises a large singl… Show more
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.
