The complete chloroplast genome sequence of (Fagaceae), and comparative analysis with related species.

Craib 1911 (section ) is a widespread tree species in the tropical seasonal forests of southwest China and Northern Indo-China areas. In this study, we sequenced, assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast genome of . The circular genome was 160,743 bp in length and had a GC content of 36.89%. The chloroplast genome has a typical quadripartite structure, including two inverted repeat regions (length, 25,825 bp; GC content, 42.76%), a large single-copy region (length, 90,196 bp; GC content, 34.74%), and a small single-copy region (length, 18,897 bp; GC content, 30.60%). Genome annotation has indicated that the chloroplast genome contained 131 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA, and eight rRNA. The phylogenetic tree showed that had a close relationship with Rehder & E.H.Wilson 1916.
