Abstract
Rubus peltatus Maxim. (Bull. Acad. Imp. 1871) is a wild species endemic to East and Southeast China. However, genetic resources were unavailable for this species. It holds great potential for domestication or other breeding purposes with the extraordinary large yellow fruits. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of R. peltatus, assembled with Illumina Hiseq X Ten platform sequencing data, was reported. The chloroplast genome was 155,582 bp in length. The large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) of 85,329 bp and 18,779 bp were separated by two inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,737 bp. The chloroplast genome of R. peltatus contains 130 genes, including eight transfer RNA genes, 36 ribosomal RNA genes, and 86 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analysis supports R. peltatus has a close relationship with the R. cochinchinensis and R. takesimensis.
