Abstract

Plastid genomes are useful markers in resolving plant phylogenetic relationships for various taxonomic groups. Here, we sequenced and assembled the complete plastid genome sequence of the fern Forst. (Aspleniaceae, Polypodiales) using the genome skimming data. The newly generated plastid genome is conserved in structure and gene content compared with that of closely related species. Plastid phylogenetic analysis of Polypodiales ferns recovered a robust phylogeny, supporting the close relationship of with .
