title: The complete chloroplast genome sequence of the Korean endemic plant Scrophularia takesimensis.
abstract: The chloroplast genome sequence of Scrophularia takesimensis (Scrophulariaceae) was determined in this study. The cpDNA was 152,425 bp in length, containing a pair of 25,478 bp inverted repeat regions (IR), which were separated by small and large single copy region (SSC and LSC) of 17,938 bp and 83,531 bp, respectively. There are total of 113 genes in the genome, including 79 protein coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, 4 rRNA genes. 18 genes encoded one or two introns. The overall AT contents of the cpDNA were 61.9% and in the LSC, SSC and IR regions were 63.8%, 67.8% and 56.8%, respectively.
