var. is an evergreen shrub or small tree, which has great ornamental and huge medicinal value. The complete chloroplast genome of this species has not been reported. In the present study, we obtained the chloroplast complete genome, the circular genome was 200,787 bp in total length, and 141 genes were identified, including 93 protein-coding, 40 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The results of the phylogenetic analysis supported the idea that Rhododendron belongs to the Ericaceae family and that var. is closely related to in the Ericaceae family. This study will provide useful data onto phylogeny research and genomic selective breeding of var.
变种是一种常绿灌木或小乔木，具有很高的观赏价值和巨大的药用价值。该物种的完整叶绿体基因组尚未见报道。在本研究中，我们获得了叶绿体完整基因组，该环状基因组全长200,787 bp，共鉴定出141个基因，包括93个蛋白质编码基因、40个tRNA基因和8个rRNA基因。系统发育分析结果支持杜鹃属属于杜鹃花科的观点，且该变种与杜鹃花科中的[具体物种]密切相关。本研究将为该变种的系统发育研究和基因组选择育种提供有用的数据。
