Abstract

Anogeissus acuminata (Roxburgh ex Candolle) Guillemin et al. is an Endangered and dominant species of deciduous forests distributed in the Mekong valley of southwest China and adjacent Indo-China Peninsula. Here we assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast (cp) genome. It is 159,993 bp in length and encodes 84 protein-coding genes, 37 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. This chloroplast genome sequencing offers genetic background for conservation and phylogenetic studies.

Keywords: Anogeissus; Combretaceae; complete chloroplast genome; phylogeny.
