Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Magnolia sinica (Y.W.Law) Noot. (magnoliaceae), A critically endangered species with extremely small populations in Magnoliaceae

摘要

Magnolia sinica, distributed in Yunnan province of China, is a critically endangered (CR) species based on the IUCN Red List. Here we provide the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of M. sinica . Its length is 159,443?bp with four sub-regions: 88,156?bp of LSC region and 18,748?bp of SSC region are separated by two IR regions (each 26,570?bp). The genome contains 79 CDSs, four rRNAs, and 30 tRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis of cp genome of M. sinica with previously reported chloroplast genomes shows that M. yunnanensis is a sister to M. sinica with high bootstrap value.
