Popis: Protea kilimandscharica is endemic to the heath zone of Mt Kenya, restricted to the rocky slopes of the mountain. The complete chloroplast genome of P. kilimandscharica was determined by next-generation sequencing technology, with a total length of 158,657 bp. The cp genome encodes 115 unique genes, with four rRNA genes, 81 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and 30 tRNA genes. A 3.1 kb inversion was noted in the LSC. Phylogenetic analysis, based on 75 common protein-coding genes revealed P. kilimandscharica as sister to Macadamia integrifolia and Macadamia ternifolia.
