Determination of chloroplast genome sequence of A. Vázquez & Cuevas (Magnoliaceae), an endangered Mexican Magnolia.

A. Vázquez & Cuevas, a plant species endemic to south Jalisco, Mexico, is a critically endangered (CR) species based on the IUCN Red List. In this study, we assembled its complete chloroplast (cp) genome. The total genome size of was 159,839 bp including four subregions: a large single-copy (LSC) region of 88,027 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,752 bp separated by a pair of identical inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26,530 bp each. The GC content of the cp genome of is 39.3%. The cp genome encoded a set of 113 genes, containing 79 protein-coding genes, 30 genes, and four genes. Phylogenetic analysis results that is a sister to all other magnolias in the subfamily Magnolioideae.
