The complete chloroplast genome of Endangered species Aristolochia delavayi Franch. (Aristolochiaceae) in Southwestern China

Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of Aristolochia delavayi was determined in this study. The chloroplast genome consists of 160,344 bp, with a typical circular structure including a pair of inverted repeats of 25,454 bp separated by a large single-copy region and a small single-copy region of 89,502 and 19,795 bp, respectively. The plastome contains 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, eight rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. Further phylogenetic analyses were conducted using 12 complete plastomes of Aristolochia. These data support a close relationship between Aristolochia delavayi and Aristolochia tubiflora.
