Abstract
Actinidia chinensis Planch. ‘Hongyang’ Wu and Li 1993, also known as red-fleshed kiwifruit, has a high vitamin C content and with high economic and nutritional value. Here, we assembled the complete chloroplast genome of A. chinensis Planch. ‘Hongyang’, which was 156,267 bp in length, contained a large single-copy region (LSC) of 87,866 bp, a small single-copy region (SSC) of 20,335 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 24,033 bp. In addition, the chloroplast genome contained 132 genes, including 85 protein-coding, 39 tRNA, and eight rRNA genes. Overall GC content in the genome was 37.2%, with the corresponding values in the LSC, SSC, and IR regions of 35.5%, 31.1%, and 42.9%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that A. chinensis Planch. ‘Hongyang’ was clustered with that of A. callosa var. strigillosa, A. deliciosa, A. melanandra, A. chinensis and A. setosa in the same branch.
