Abstract
Potentilla lineata Treviranus is a common medicinal plant distributed in the southwest of China. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genome sequence of P. lineata and investigated its phylogenetic relationship within Potentilla and related genera. The total length of the chloroplast genome is 156,985 bp. The genome exhibits a typical quadripartite structure containing a pair of IRs (inverted repeats) of 25,974 bp separated by a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,859 bp and a large single copy (LSC) region of 86,178 bp. The chloroplast genome contained 112 genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicates that Potentilla L. is a monophytic taxon that is sister to Potaninia Maxim. Potentilla lineata is closely related to P. centigrana Maxim in the present study. This study provides a reference for the phylogeny and species evolution of the genus Potentilla and related genera.
