Abstract

The chloroplast (cp) genome of Miliusa glochidioides has been fully sequenced. The cp genome of this species has a typical quadripartite structure comprised of four parts: a large single copy (LSC; 88,782 bp) region, a small single copy (SSC; 18,949 bp) region, and two inverted repeat (IR; 26,029 bp each) regions. The full length of the cp genome is 159,789 bp; its GC content is 36.7%, and it encodes a total of 129 genes including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Among the protein-coding genes, nine (rps16, rpl2, rpl16, atpF, rpoC1, petB, petD, ndhA, and ndhB) contain one intron, and three (rps12, clpP, and ycf3) have two introns. A maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree shows that M. glochidioides is a sister to Chieniodendron hainanense.
