Abstract
Toxicodendron succedaneum (L.) Kuntze is a deciduous and dioecious tree species in the family Anacardiaceae with important economic values. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of T. succedaneum. The circular genome is 159,710 bp in size, and presents a quadripartite structure including two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,524 bp, one large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,622 bp, and one small single-copy (SSC) region of 19,040 bp. It encodes a total of 113 unique genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16 cp genome sequences revealed that the genus Toxicodendron is closely related to Pistacia and Rhus, and T. succedaneum was most closely related to T. vernicifluum.
