Popis: Cerasus kumanoensis is a recently described wild cherry species from the Kii Peninsula, Japan. Here we determined the first complete chloroplast genome of C. kumanoensis using genome skimming approach. The cp genome was 157,898 bp long, with a large single-copy region (LSC) of 85,926 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 19,070 bp separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,451 bp. It encodes 129 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA genes. Besides, we reconstructed the phylogeny of Prunus using maximum likelihood (ML) method, including our data and previously reported cp genomes of related taxa. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. kumanoensis is close related with a group including Prunus takesimensis and P. speciosa.
