Abstract
Rosa acicularis Lindl. is a kind of ornamental species widely distributed in the north temperate zone. Here, we describe the complete chloroplast genome of R. acicularis using Illumina paired-end sequencing. The chloroplast genome length is 156,527 bp, including two inverted repeat (IR) region of 26,053 bp each, separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85,674 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,747 bp. The genome contains 129 genes, including 84 protein-codon genes (PCGs), 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The whole chloroplast genome GC content is 37.2%. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that R. acicularis was closest related to R. praelucens.
