Abstract
Michelia amoena Q.F.Zheng et M.M.Lin is classified in Magnoliaceae and has a high economic value. Herein, we report the complete chloroplast genome of M. amoena using Illumina sequence data. The chloroplast genome is 160,088 bp in length and contains a large single copy (LSC) region of 88,118 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,798 bp separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,586 bp each. It contained a total of 131 genes, with an overall GC content of 39.26%. The phylogenetic analysis showed that M. amoena is closely related to Michelia figo. This study provides important sequence information for species identification and its phylogenetic relationship in the Magnoliaceae.
