Litsea molis Hemsl. is a precious wild aromatic oil tree species and important medicinal plant. In this study, we sequenced and characterized the chloroplast genome of L. molis for the first time. Its complete chloroplast genome is 152,311 bp in length, containing a large single copy region of 93,258 bp and a small single copy region of 18,917 bp separated by a pair of inverted repeat regions of 20,068 bp. The chloroplast genome contains 130 unique genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast genome sequences of 36 plants from the family Lauraceae showed that L. molis is more closely related to species of Lindera genus than other genera in Lauraceae.Cerasus fengyangshanica is a wild flowering cherry endemic to Mount Fengyang, China. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. fengyangshanica (GenBank accession number MW160272).

It encodes 129 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA genes. selleck We also reconstructed the phylogeny of Prunus sensu lato using maximum likelihood (ML) method, including our data and previously reported cp genomes of related taxa. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. fengyangshanica is closely related with Prunus maximowiczii.Sansevieria trifasciata var. laurentii (S. trifasciata) is a kind of popular in-door and out-door plant around world, it is not only known as the ornamental plant, but also as medical plant. It belongs to the Draceanaceae family, Draceanaceae includes more than 60 species distributed in tropical and subtropical dry climate regions. In this study, we sequenced the sample of S. trifasciata and determined its complete chloroplast genome. The length of CP genome is 155,179 bp, includes two invert repeats (IR) regions of 26,513 bp, a large single copy (LSC) region of 83,680 bp and a short single copy (SSC) region of 18,473 bp. There are 133 genes, which includes 87 protein coding genes, 8 rRNA and 38 tRNA, and 37.5% overall GC content. Each of trnK-UUU, rps16, trnG-UCC, atpF, rpoC1, trnL-UAA, trnV-UAC, petB, petD, rpl16, rpl2, ndhB, trnI-GAU, trnA-UGC and ndhA genes contains a intron, clpP and ycf3 contains 2 intron. The phylogenetic position shows that S. trifasciata has the closest relationship with Rohdea Chinensis (MH356725.1).Rhododendron platypodum Diels (Ericaceae) is a Chinese endemic and endangered species with high ornamental value. Here the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of R. platypodum was assembled and characterized. The cp genome is in a total length of 201,047 bp with the typical quadripartite structure of angiosperms, containing two inverted repeats (IRs) of 44,650 bp separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 109,134 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 2613 bp. The whole cp genome of R. platypodum contains 143 genes, including 93 protein-coding genes, 42 transfer RNA genes and 8 ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on the coding sequences of cp genome within the Ericaceae family suggests that R. platypodum is closely related to R. delavayi.This study was the first report for the complete chloroplast genome of Passiflora serrulata Jacq. (Passifloraceae). The cp genome was 149,683 bp in length contained two inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,470 bp, which were separated by large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) of 86,252 bp and 13,491 bp, respectively. A total of 110 functional genes were encoded, comprised 76 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The GC content was 37.0%. The maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree indicated that P. serrulata was recovered as the member of subg. Passiflora and most closely related to the clade formed by P. serratodigitata and P. ligularis.Lotus corniculatus L., a member of the Fabaceae family, is considered one of the most agriculturally important forage plants, owing to its anti-bloating properties; its ability to grow in low-fertility, acidic, and high-salinity soils; and high nutritional value. In this study, we obtained the complete chloroplast genome of L. corniculatus by Illumina sequencing and GetOrganelle assembly pipeline. The whole chloroplast genome of L. corniculatus is 150,700 bp in length, and has a typical circular structure with four parts a large single-copy region (LSC 82,117 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC 18,275 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (25,154 bp for both IRa and IRb). The overall GC content is 36.03%. The plastome has 109 unique genes, consisting of 78 protein-coding genes, 27 unique tRNA gene, and 4 unique rRNA genes. Based on the protein-coding gene sequences from 17 species, we reconstructed a maximum likelihood (ML) tree. The phylogenetic result shows that L. corniculatus has a closer relationship with Lotus japonicas.Phyllostachys angusta McClure is a precious wood-use bamboo resource, with almost straight stem. The complete chloroplast genome of the P. angusta McClure was assembled for the first time from Illumina pair-end sequencing data in this work. The total genome size of P. angusta McClure was 139,678 bp in length, containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,212 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 12,870 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 21,798 bp. The overall GC content of the genome was 38.89%, and the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC, and IR regions were 36.97, 33.17, and 44.22%, respectively. A total of 131 genes were annotated, including 85 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis results strongly supported that P. angusta McClure was closely related to P. reticulate.A hen harrier Circus cyaneus (Accipitriformes Accipitridae), a migrant raptor having a wide breeding range from Europe to Northeast Asia, migrates to more southerly areas (Southern Europe, China, Korea and Japan) in winter. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of C. cyaneus was completely sequenced and characterized. It was 20,173 bp in length being composed of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and two control regions. It has a base composition of A (32.2%), G (12.6%), C (30.5%) and T (24.7%). The phylogenetic tree reconstructed based on the maximum likelihood (ML) method confirms that C. cyaneus places within the clade of the family Accipitridae in the monophyletic avian order Accipitriformes.
