Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of Paeonia cv. Hwang-Moran (PHM), a yellow flowering tree peony, was de novo assembled and characterized from high-throughput next-generation sequencing data. The total length of the circular PHM chloroplast genome was 152,519 bp, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84,214 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,026 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 25,640 bp. The entire chloroplast genome contained 111 genes, including 77 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNAs, and four rRNAs. A phylogenetic tree constructed using the PHM and related chloroplast genome sequences revealed its close taxonomic relationship with P. ludlowii within the genus Paeonia.
