Abstract

Eleutherococcus trifoliatus (L.) S. Y. Hu is a wild edible plant and widely used in the coastal region of South China. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of E. trifoliatus. The length of the cp genome was determined to be 156751 bp with a small single copy (SSC) region of 18316 bp, a large single copy (LSC) region of 86747 bp and two separated inverted region of 25844 bp, respectively. Totally, 132 unique genes were identified of this genome, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and eight rRNA genes. The GC contents of this genome is 38%. Chloroplast phylogenomics analysis indicates that E. trifoliatus is closely related to E. gracilistylus (W.W. Sm.) S.Y. Hu.

Keywords: Eleutherococcus trifoliatus; chloroplast genome; phylogenetic analysis; wild vegetable.
