Bupleurum komarovianum Chloroplast Genome Sequence and Annotations

155,835 base pairs of chloroplast DNA from the medicinal plant Bupleurum komarovianum, assembled and annotated by Yanli Mo. The genome includes 128 genes and 49 simple sequence repeats, providing a resource for distinguishing this species from its close relatives. It was last updated on figshare in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Conducting phylogenetic analysis based on the complete chloroplast genome sequence.
• Identifying species-specific genetic markers based on the annotated simple sequence repeats.
• Comparing genomic structure and gene content with related species like B. falcatum and B. boissieuanum.
• Supporting the accurate identification of medicinal plant material based on genomic resources.

Strengths

• The complete chloroplast genome is 155,835 bp in length with a detailed GC content of 37.70%.
• A total of 128 genes are annotated, including 84 protein-coding, 36 tRNA, and 8 rRNA genes.
• Phylogenetic relationships are explicitly analyzed, showing closest relation to B. falcatum and B. boissieuanum.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (1.6 MB), which may limit the scope of analysis.
