The complete chloroplast genome sequence of a medicinal orchid species Coelogyne fimbriata (Orchidaceae)

Coelogyne fimbriatais an important orchid species with high medicinal value. Its complete chloroplast genome is 158,935 bp in length, which possesses the typical structure consising of a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,743 bp, two inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,374 bp, and a large-single copy region (LSC) of 87,444 bp. The genome encodes 137 genes, including 91 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 38 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. And the overall GC content is 37.40%. In addition, our phylogenetic analysis based on cp genome revealed the phylogenetic relationship betweenC. fimbriataand other 22 species in Orchidaceae.
