We de novo assembled and analysed the chloroplast genomes of Capsella bursa-pastoris, Descurainia sophia, and Lepidium apetalum of the plant family Brassicaceae. These chloroplast genomes exhibited a quadripartite structure characterised by inverted repeat regions (26,268–26,460 bp) separating large single copy (83,771–83,870 bp) and small single copy (17,570–18,014 bp) regions. Genetic analysis revealed 112 unique genes, comprising 78 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 4 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Notably, phylogenetic analysis of 21 species revealed close relationships between C. bursa-pastoris and C. orientalis, D. sophia and D. erodiifolia, and L. apetalum and L. cordatum, with 100% bootstrap support. In conclusion, the analysis of these genomes will contribute to the growing knowledge of chloroplast genomes in the Brassicaceae family and of the specific genera Capsella, Descurainia, and Lepidium. |
