RESUMO
Quercus phillyraeoides A. Gray is an evergreen oak species native to East Asia, and it plays a vital role in mountain ecosystems. In this study, we assembled the complete chloroplast genome of Q. phillyraeoides based on sequencing data. The genome was circular and 161,384 bp in length, consisting of a large single-copy region (90,617 bp), small single-copy region (19,035 bp), and two short inverted repeat regions (25,866 bp). We found that the cp genome encodes for 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 8 rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. The results of the phylogenetic analysis of the complete cp genome sequence illustrated that Q. phillyraeoides is a member of the section Quercus and it is most closely related to Q. tarokoensis.
