The complete chloroplast genome sequence of the plant Euonymus fortunei (Celastraceae).

ABSTRACT: Chloroplast (cp) genome sequences become a useful popular tool for population and phylogeny in recent reports. Here, the complete cp genome of the Euonymus fortunei has been reconstructed from the whole-genome Illumina sequencing data. The circular genome is 157,639 bp in size, and comprises a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,668 bp each, a large single copy (LSC) region of 85,956 bp and a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,347 bp. The total GC content is 37.2%, while the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC, and IR region are 35.1%, 31.7%, and 42.7%, respectively. The cp genome contains 126 genes, including 89 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 29 transfer RNA genes and one pseudogene. The maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis showed a strong sister
