Popis: Periploca forrestii Schltr. is a traditional medicine plant in southwestern China. In this study, we characterize the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. forrestii based on next-generation sequencing. The cp genome is 154,140 bp in size with an overall GC content 38.2%, including a large single-copy (LSC) region (84,941 bp), a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,619 bp, and two inverted repeats (IRs) regions, each of 25,790 bp. A total of 130 genes (85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 37 transfer RNA (tRNA genes)) are annotated in the whole chloroplast genome, containing 113 unique genes (79 unique CDSs, 30 unique tRNAs, and 4 unique rRNAs). The phylogenetic analysis indicated that P. forrestii formed a monophyletic clade with the same genus plant P. sepium, showing that they have close relationship. The complete chloroplast genome of P. forrestii provides valuable genomic information for the phylogeny, molecular identification and sustainable utilization of this species.
