Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome (cp genome) sequence of <i>Clematis calcicola</i> J. S. Kim (Ranunculaceae) is 159,655 bp in length. It consists of large (79,451 bp) and small (18,126 bp) single-copy regions and a pair of identical inverted repeats (31,039 bp). The genome contains 92 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and two pseudogenes. A phylogenetic analysis based on the cp genome of 19 taxa showed high similarity between our cp genome and data published for <i>C. calcicola</i>, which is recognized as a species endemic to the Korean Peninsula. The complete cp genome sequence of <i>C. calcicola</i> reported here provides important information for future phylogenetic and evolutionary studies of Ranunculaceae.
