Abstract

Campanula carpatica is an ornamental flowering plant belonging to the family Campanulaceae. The complete chloroplast genome of C. carpatica was obtained using Illumina HiSeq X and Oxford Nanopore (Nanopore GridION) platforms. The chloroplast genome exhibited a typical circular structure with a total length of 169,341 bp, comprising a large single-copy region of 102,323 bp, a small single-copy region of 7744 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats (IRa/IRb) of 29,637 bp each. Out of a total 120 genes, 76 were protein-coding genes, 36 were transfer RNA genes, and eight were ribosomal RNA genes. The genomic characteristics of C. carpatica are similar to those of other Campanula species in terms of repetitive sequences, sequence divergence, and contraction/expansion events in the inverted repeat regions. A phylogenetic analysis of 63 shared genes in 16 plant species revealed that Campanula zangezura is the closest relative of C. carpatica. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. carpatica was within the Campanula clade, and C. pallida occupied the outermost position of that clade.
