The complete chloroplast genome of Castanea crenata Sieb. & Zucc.

ABSTRACT: The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Castanea crenata was sequenced and assembled using PacBio Sequel data. The cpDNA was 160,787 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,654 bp each separated by a large and small single copy (LSC and SSC) regions of 90,645 bp and 18,836 bp, respectively. The cpDNA contained 102 genes, including 65 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes and 37 transfer RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. crenata was closest to C. pumila var. pumila, which is known as a typical variety of American chinquapin or dwarf chestnut.
