Abstract:
Polyalthopsis Chaowasku is a recently newly described genus in Annonaceae. Polyalthopsis verrucipes (C.Y.Wu ex P.T.Li) B.Xue & Y.H.Tan is distributed in Southern Yunnan, China. In this article, we report the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Polyalthiopsis based on Illumina sequencing data. The whole cp genome of this species is 159,965 bp in length, consisting of two inverted repeat regions (IR, 25,974 bp each), one large single-copy region (LSC, 89,030 bp), and one small single-copy region (SSC, 18,987 bp). A total of 130 genes were annotated for the cp genome, including 83 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that P. verrucipes was closely related to Meiogyne hainanensis.
