Abstract

Kadsura coccinea (Lem.) A.C.Sm. in the Schisandraceae family is woody vine plant, which produce edible red fruits that are rich in nutrients and antioxidant activities. Herein, we assembled the complete chloroplast genome of Kadsura coccinea by next-generation sequencing technologies. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Kadsura coccinea is 145,413 base pairs (bp) in length, including a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs, 16,431 bp), one large single-copy region (LSC, 94,511 bp), one small single-copy region (SSC, 18,040 bp). Besides, the complete chloroplast genome contains 126 genes in total, including 82 protein-coding genes, 35 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Kadsura coccinea has the closest relationship with Kadsura longipedunculata. Our study lay a foundation for further research of Kadsura coccinea.

Keywords: Chloroplast genome; Kadsura coccinea; Schisandraceae; phylogenetic analysis.
