Premise Aquilegia is an ideal taxon for studying the evolution of adaptive radiation. Current phylogenies of Aquilegia based on different molecular markers are inconsistent, and therefore a clear and accurate phylogeny remains uncertain. Analyzing the chloroplast genome, with its simple structure and low recombination rate, may help solve this problem. Methods Next‐generation sequencing data were generated or downloaded for Aquilegia species, enabling their chloroplast genomes to be assembled. The assemblies were used to estimate the genome characteristics and infer the phylogeny of Aquilegia. Results In this study, chloroplast genome sequences were assembled for Aquilegia species distributed across Asia, North America, and Europe. Three of the genes analyzed (petG, rpl36, and atpB) were shown to be under positive selection and may be related to adaptation. The phylogenetic tree of Aquilegia showed that its member species formed two clades with high support, North American and European species, with the Asian species being paraphyletic; A. parviflora and A. amurensis clustered with the North American species, while the remaining Asian species were found in the European clade. In addition, A. oxysepala var. kansuensis should be considered as a separate species rather than a variety. Discussion The complete chloroplast genomes of these Aquilegia species provide new insights into the reconstruction of the phylogeny of related species and contribute to the further study of this genus. |
