Abstract
Paphiopedilum emersonii is an endemic terrestrial orchid in China. In this study, the chloroplast genome of P. emersonii was determined from BGISEQ-500 sequencing data. The total chloroplast genome was 162,590 bp in length, consisting of a large single-copy region (LSC, 87,852 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 870 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRA and IRB, 36,934 bp, each). The complete chloroplast genome contains 131 genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. In addition, the phylogenetic analysis indicates that P. emersonii was sister to Paphiopedilum micranthum. The chloroplast genome will contribute to the research and conservation of P. emersonii.
