Popis: Agave amaniensis Trel. & W. Nowell (1933) has long been used for phytosteroid production, which is also one of the parents of the famous Agave hybrid cultivar 11648 for sisal fiber production. However, its systematic position and phylogenetic relationship remains unknown at the chloroplast (cp) genome level. Therefore, we have sequenced and assembled the cp genome of A. amaniensis via Illumina sequencing. The cp genome is 157,282 bp in length with a GC content of 37.84%. A large single-copy region of 85,899 bp, a small single-copy region of 18,233 bp, and inverted repeat regions of 26,575 bp were found in the cp genome. Based on the annotation, 86 protein-coding genes, eight rRNAs, and 38 tRNAs were identified in the cp genome with total lengths of 78,981 bp, 9050 bp, and 2867 bp, respectively. The phylogenetic tree indicates that A. amaniensis is closely related with A. H11648, A. angustifolia, and A. americana.
