Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Rhododendron henanense subsp. lingbaoense Fang.

ABSTRACT: Rhododendron henanense subsp. lingbaoense is endemic in China. The cpDNA of R. henanense subsp. lingbaoense is a typical quadripartite structure with a length of 208,015 bp, including a large single-copy region of 110,593 bp and a small single-copy region of 2606 bp separated by a pair of identical inverted repeat regions of 47,408 bp each. The chloroplast genome contains 119 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, four ribosomal RNA genes, and 29 transfer RNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis of R. henanense subsp. lingbaoense showed a relatively close relationship with Rhododendron delavayi.
