Vitis amurensis is a species of wild grape with high ecological, medicinal, and economic values. Here, the complete chloroplast genome of this plant was assembled from whole-genome high-throughput sequencing data. The circular double-stranded DNA molecule is 160,953 bp in size, including a pair of inverted repeats (26,354 bp each) separated by large (89,187 bp) and small (19,058 bp) single-copy regions. The chloroplast genome contains 133 genes, including 88 protein-coding genes (80 PCG species), 37 transfer RNA genes (29 tRNA species) and eight ribosomal RNA genes (four rRNA species), 20 of which are duplicated, including eight protein-coding, eight tRNA, and four rRNA genes. The base composition is asymmetric (30.93 % A, 19.07 % C, 18.33 % G, 31.67 % T) with an overall A + T content of 62.60 %. A phylogenetic analysis based on complete chloroplast genome sequences showed that V. amurensis is closely related to V. vinifera, V. aestivalis, and V. rotundifolia.
