The complete chloroplast genome of Abies georgei Orr var. smithii, a species endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China.

ABSTRACT: Abies georgei Orr var. smithii is an evergreen coniferous species of Pinaceae, and is endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of China. Considering its vital ecological functions in this unique area, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome was constructed in this study to provide genetic information for its further study of conservation and evolution. The complete cp genome is 121,213 bp in length with GC content of 38.3%, and contains a tetrad structure, including a large single copy region of 76,278 bp, a small single copy of 42,575 bp, and two very short repeats of 1,180 bp for each. Besides, it contains 113 genes in total, including 74 CDSs, 35 tRNAs, and four rRNAs. This genome has been deposited in Genbank under accession number of MT527722.
