The complete chloroplast genome of

Toona sinensis is an economic and medicinal plant endemic in China. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of T. sinensis was assembled using the second-generation high-throughput sequencing data. The genome consists of 138 genes in total, including 89 protein-coding genes, 7 ribosomal RNA genes, 40 transfer RNA genes and 2 pseudogenes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that T. sinensis has a close relationship with the Toona ciliata with strong support. The chloroplast genome presented here provides a valuable resource to conserve this valuable species.
