Description
Summary:Lonicera maackii is native to Northeastern Asia and considered as an invasive plant in North America. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of L. maackii was obtained by high-throughput next-generation sequencing technology. The chloroplast genome was 155,318 bp in length and had typical quadripartite structures comprising a large single copy, a small single copy, and a pair of inverted repeat regions of 89,202, 18,680, and 23,718 bp long, respectively. The genome contained 80 protein-coding genes, four rRNA genes and 30 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic tree revealed that L. maackii was grouped with other Caprifoliaceae species, L. japonica, Patrinia saniculifolia, and Kolkwitzia amabilis.
