Summary: | Toxicodendron sylvestre (Siebold & Zucc.) Kuntze is a deciduous tree species in the poison ivy genus of the sumac family. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of T. sylvestre. The circular genome is 159,600 bp in length, including two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,465 bp, one large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,630 bp, and one small single-copy (SSC) region of 19,040 bp. It encodes a total of 113 unique genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on 17 cp genome sequences revealed that T. sylvestre was more closely related to T. succedaneum.
