Complete chloroplast genomes clarify phylogenetic placement of six polygonatum species

Polygonatum Miller is highly valued for its medicinal properties with the horizontal creeping fleshy roots. Previous studies have mainly focused on the size and gene content of the plastid genome, with insufficient studies on the comparative genomic analysis. In addition, the complete chloroplast genome data of some species have not been published, so their phylogenetic placement is not well understood.
