Abstract
The complete chloroplast genome sequence of a wild kiwifruit species from north China, Actinidia kolomikta, was determined and mapped based on Illumina sequencing data. The complete chloroplast genome is 156,875 bp and comprises a pair of inverted repeat regions of 23,918 bp each, a large single-copy region of 88,568 bp, and a small single-copy region of 20,471 bp. The genome harbors 132 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 39 transfer RNA genes. Compared with most other angiosperms, A. kolomikta has lost its clpP gene. Phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast genomes indicates that A. kolomikta is closely related to Actinidia argute.
