The complete chloroplast genome sequences of Delavaya toxocarpa and Harpullia cupanioides (Dodonaeoideae, Sapindaceae)

The complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of Delavaya toxocarpa and Harpullia cupanioides were reported here. In D. toxocarpa, the total genome size was 161,325 bp in length, consisting of two IRs (26, 698 bp) separated by the LSC (88,698 bp) and SSC (19,231 bp) regions. The genome contained 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes, respectively. The GC-content of the complete chloroplast genome was 37.5%. As to H. cupanioides, the complete chloroplast genome was 159, 776 bp in length, consisting of two IRs (26,938 bp) separated by the LSC (87,804 bp) and SSC (18,096 bp) regions. The genome contained 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes,  respectively. The GC-content of the complete chloroplast genome was 37.8%. A phylogenetic analysis indicated that D. toxocarpa was closely related to Koelreuteria, while H. cupanioides was close with Dodonaea viscosa. This study will be useful for the phylogenetic position determination as well as future phylogenetic studies of Delavaya toxocarpa and H. cupanioides.
