Abstract

Phyllostachys nidularia (Bambusoideae: Poaceae), widely distributed in the Yangtze River Basin and various provinces (regions) in southern China, is one of the most important small and medium-sized bamboo species used in both bamboo shoots and timber. In the present study, we assembled a complete chloroplast genome of the economically important bamboo form Phyllostachys nidularia f. farcta H.R.Zhao & A.T.Liu using whole genome sequencing data previously reported. The complete chloroplast (cp) genome is 139,706 bp in length. A total of 129 unique genes were annotated, including 82 protein-coding, 39 tRNA, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis results supported that P. nidularia f. farcta was closely related to Phyllostachys reticulata. This work would help us better understand the evolution of the Phyllostachys cp genome.
