Abstract
Sedum tricarpum Makino., is a perennial succulent herb, which was first discovered and established as a new species ten years ago. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of S. tricarpum. It shows a typical quadripartite structure with a total length of 149,349 bp, including the large single-copy region (LSC) of 81,644 bp, the small single-copy region (SSC) of 16,643 bp, and two separated inverted regions (IRs) of 25,531 bp, respectively. For the whole genome, there are a total of 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 8 rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. The overall GC content of the cp genome is 37.8%. A well-supported phylogenetic tree revealed monophyly formed by S. tricarpum and S. sarmentosum, suggesting a relatively closer phylogenetic relationship with the clade consisting of S. lineare and Graptopetalum amethystinum. The complete chloroplast genome of S. tricarpum provides valuable information for further phylogenetic reconstruction of the Crassulaceae family.
