Abstract
Sophora davidii (Franch.) Pavol. is a deciduous or evergreen shrubs belonging to the genus Sophora, Fabaceae. The roots of S. davidii have been traditionally used as a medicinal herb in China to clear internal heat, relieve sore throat, and reduce swelling. Here we sequenced the whole genome of the chloroplast of S. davidii. The complete length of the chloroplast genome in S. davidii is 153,584 bp, containing a large single-copy region of 83,930 bp, a small single-copy region of 15,008 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats regions of 25,823 bp. The total guanine-cytosine (GC) percentage of the chloroplast genome was 36.7%. A total of 131 genes were annotated from the chloroplast genome of S. davidii, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes and 38 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed that S. davidii is closely related to the other three species of genus Sophora.
