Abstract

The whole chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Toxicodendron griffithii has been characterized from Illumina pair-end sequencing. The complete cp genome was 159,613 bp in length, containing a large single-copy region (LSC) of 87,722 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,911 bp, which were separated by a pair of 26,490 bp inverted repeat regions (IRs). The genome contained 132 genes (113 unique), including 87 protein-coding genes (80 unique), 37 tRNA genes (29 unique), and 8 rRNA genes (4 unique). The overall GC content of T. griffithii cp genome is 37.94%. Phylogenetic analysis of 14 chloroplast genomes within the family Anacardiaceae suggests that T. griffithii is closely related to genus Rhus and genus Pistacia.
