Abstract
Epimedium dewuense S. Z. He is a rare and endangered endemic to China. The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of E. dewuense was reported in this study. The total cp genomes size was 157,056 bp in length, with 38.8% of GC content, and a typical quadripartite structure, the large single-copy region (LSC, 88,346 bp), small single-copy region (SSC, 26,768 bp) that separate by a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs, each for 20,820 bp). The whole cp genome of E. dewuense contained 130 unique genes, including 37 tRNA, 7 rRNA, and 86 protein-coding genes. This plastid genome is the first report for the E. dewuense and will be useful data for developing markers for further studies on resolving the relationship within the Berberidaceae.
