The complete chloroplast genome sequence of (Violaceae).

is a perennial plant native to the mountainous areas of Northeast Asia. Here the complete chloroplast genome of and its phylogenetic relationships to other species within the genus are reported. The complete chloroplast genome of is 157,843 bp in length and circular in structure with four regions: a large single-copy region (86,345 bp), a small single-copy region (17,292 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (27,103 bp each). The chloroplast genome contains 111 unique genes comprising 77 protein-coding, 30 unique tRNA, and 4 unique rRNA genes. Based on the protein-coding gene sequences from eight chloroplast genomes, with designated as the outgroup, maximum likelihood tree analysis indicates that is more closely related to than to other species. The complete chloroplast genome of contributes to a better understanding of the phylogenetic relationships among species.
