Abstract
The first complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) sequence of Pericampylus glaucus was determined from Illumina HiSeq pair-end sequencing data in this study. The cpDNA is 162,450 bp in length, contains a large single-copy region (LSC) of 90,871 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 21,137 bp, which were separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IR) regions of 25,221 bp. The genome contains 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 37 transfer RNA genes. The overall GC content of the whole genome is 38.0%, and the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC, and IR regions are 36.2, 32.1, and 43.5%, respectively. Further, phylogenomic analysis showed that P. glaucus and Stephania japonica clustered in a clade in family Menispermaceae.
