The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Rhus potaninii

Abstract

We reported the complete chloroplast genome sequences of Rhus potaninii which was characterized by de novo assembly with Illumina sequencing data. The size of R. potaninii complete chloroplast genome is 159,620 bp in length and includes a large single copy region of 87,722 bp, a small single copy region of 18,948 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats of 26,475 bp. Its GC content is 37.9%. A total of 133 genes were predicted, including 86 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 2 pseudogenes. Maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree indicates that R. potaninii is sister to R. chinensis.
