Description
Summary:Styrax serrulatus Roxburgh (William Roxburgh 1832), which plays an important role in ecology and economy, is a deciduous species of Styracaceae. In this paper, we sequenced, assembled, and annotated the chloroplast (cp) genome of S. serrulatus by using the sequencing data from Illumina Novaseq platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA). The complete cp genome of S. serrulatus is 157,929 base pairs (bp) in length, containing a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26,048 bp each, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,552 bp, and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,281 bp. It contains 133 genes, including 8 rRNA genes, 37 tRNA genes, 87 protein-coding genes, and 1 pseudo gene. The GC content of S. serrulatus cp genome is 36.96%. The phylogenetic analysis suggests that S. serrulatus is a sister species to Styrax agrestis in Styracaceae.
