Abstract

We sequenced the complete chloroplast of Firmiana danxiaensis (Malvaceae), which is 161,253 bp in size and consists of a large single-copy region (LSC) of 90,142 bp and a short single copy region (SSC) of 20,067 bp. It was separated by two inverted repeats (IRs) regions of 25,522 bp for each. The GC content of the whole genome, LSC, SSC, and IRs region was 36.87%, 34.68%, 31.24%, and 42.97%, respectively. The overall base content was A (31.07%), T (32.05%), C (18.80%), and G (18.08%). The genome contained 127 genes, including 82 protein-coding sequences, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that F. danxiaensis is sister to F. simplex, and supported there was a close relationship among F. danxiaensis, F. simplex, and F. pulcherrima.
