The complete plastid genome of an Antarctic moss Chorisodontium aciphyllum (Hook. f. & Wilson) Broth (Dicranaceae, Dicranales)
Plastid genomes are useful markers in resolving plant phylogenetic relationships for various taxonomic groups. Here, we sequenced and de novo assembled the complete plastid genome sequence of an Antarctic moss Chorisodontium aciphyllum (Hook. f. & Wilson) Broth using genome skimming data. The ne...

| Summary: | Plastid genomes are useful markers in resolving plant phylogenetic relationships for various taxonomic groups. Here, we sequenced and de novo assembled the complete plastid genome sequence of an Antarctic moss Chorisodontium aciphyllum (Hook. f. & Wilson) Broth using genome skimming data. The newly generated plastid genome is conserved in structure and gene content compared with that of other Bryopsida. Plastid phylogenetic analysis of mosses recovered a robust phylogeny in which Chorisodontium aciphyllum clustered with Fissidens nobilis from the Dicranales. The plastid genome sequence of C. aciphyllum will aid future evolution and diversification studies of land plants. |
