Abstract

Chimonobambusa purpurea is one of the important bamboo species in southwest of China. We studied the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. purpurea in this study. The cp genome of C. purpurea (GenBank accession: MW030500) was 139,574 bp in length, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,171 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 12,811 bp, and a pair of inverted repeated (IR) regions of 21,796 bp. And the genome contained 133 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 39 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Based on 30 cp genomes, we used the phylogenetic analysis to build phylogenetic tree, indicating that C. purpurea is closely related to C. tumidissinoda.

Keywords: Chimonobambusa purpurea; chloroplast genome; phylogenetic analysis.
