Abstract
Pistacia chinensis Bunge (Anacardiaceae: Rhoideae) is a rare resource plant that originated in China, and has been widely used in horticultural and production field. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of P. chinensis on the Illumina platform by shotgun genome skimming method. The complete chloroplast genome of P. chinensis was 160,596 bp in length with the GC content 37.9%, which was comprised of a large single copy (LSC) region of 88,310 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 19,090bp, and a pair of inverted repeats (IRA/IRB) of 26,598 bp. The chloroplast genome encoded 132 genes including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis constructed using maximum likelihood (ML) method strongly supported the monophyly of each genus used in the family Anacardiaceae, and the genus Pistacia is a sister group to the genus Rhus with 100% bootstrap value. Pistacia chinensis Bunge was sister to P. vera and then grouped with Pistacia weinmaniifolia as a cluster.
