D.Don 1825 (Ericaceae) is a traditional Chinese medicinal plant used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. The complete chloroplast genome of . has been sequenced and assembled. The genome is 176,207 bp in total with one large single copy (LSC: 107,726 bp), one small single copy (SSC: 3,389 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb; each 32,546 bp). The chloroplast genome encoded a total of 110 unique genes; the GC content of these genes is 36.6%. The results based on phylogenetic analysis of the complete chloroplast genome suggests that diverged later than , the sister relationship between and the clade comprising Wall. 1820 and C.B. Clarke 1882 was strongly supported. This study provides additional information on the genetic diversity of . , its closely related taxa, and further exploration of chloroplast genomes in the Ericaceae family.
冬红（Ericaceae）是一种传统的中药植物，用于治疗类风湿关节炎。已对. 的完整叶绿体基因组进行了测序和组装。基因组全长 176207bp，包括一个大单拷贝区（LSC：107726bp）、一个小单拷贝区（SSC：3389bp）和两个反向重复区（IRa 和 IRb；各 32546bp）。叶绿体基因组共编码 110 个独特的基因；这些基因的 GC 含量为 36.6%。基于完整叶绿体基因组的系统发育分析结果表明，. 比 分化得更晚， 和包含 Wall. 1820 和 C.B. Clarke 1882 的分支之间的姐妹关系得到了强烈支持。本研究为. 的遗传多样性及其近缘种提供了更多信息，并进一步探索了石楠科植物的叶绿体基因组。
