The complete chloroplast genome sequence of , an endangered species in China.

C.I Peng & Yan Liu (2013) was rated as endangered according to Red List of Chinese Plants. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome of . The chloroplast genome is 169,114 bp in length as the circular, with the GC content of 35.5%, composed by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 75,887 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,105 bp, and two inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 37,561 bp in each. The genome comprises 174 encoded genes in total, including 114 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 52 transfer RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that is genetically closest to .
