Abstract
Cymbidium floribundum var. pumilum is an epiphytic orchid distributed in the southern China. It has a high ornamental value and always be used as a hybrid parent. In this study, we obtained a complete chloroplast genome of C. floribundum var. pumilum from BGISEQ-500 sequencing data. The total chloroplast genome was 155,291 bp in length, consisting of a large single copy region (LSC 84,415 bp), a small single copy region (SSC 17,484 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRA and IRB 26,696 bp). The complete chloroplast genome contains 139 genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 38 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. In addition, the phylogenetic analysis indicates that C. floribundum var. pumilum was sister to section Geocymbidium, section Pachyrhizanthe and section Jensoa. The chloroplast genome will contribute to establish an effective conservation strategy for C. floribundum var. pumilum.
