Abstract

Abstract: Ampelocalamus scandens is native to Guizhou Province, China, and grows at an altitude of 260–320 m. It can be used as a raw material for weaving and papermaking. In the current study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. scandens was sequenced and is reported for the first time. The complete cp sequence was 139, 504 bp, include large single-copy (LSC), small single-copy (SSC), and a pair of invert repeats (IR) region of 83, 103 bp, 12, 813 bp, and 21, 793 bp, respectively. Besides, the plastid genome comprised a total of 132 genes, including protein-coding, tRNA, and rRNA genes as 85, 39, and 8 genes, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on 28 cp genomes reveals that A. scandens is closely associated with Ampelocalamus melicoideus in Arundinarodae.
