Abstract
Elaeagnus mollis is a rare and endangered oil tree species endemic to China Here we assembled and characterized its whole chloroplast cp genome using Illumina pairend sequencing data The E mollis cp genome was 151428 bp in length containing a large single copy region LSC of 81003 bp and a small single copy region SSC of 18561 bp separated by a pair of inverted repeats IRs of 25932 bp The genome possessed 131 genes including 85 proteincoding genes 38 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes Most of genes occurred as singlecopy while 18 gene species had two copies The overall GC content of the E mollis cp genome was 370 and the corresponding values of LSC SSC and IR regions were 350 303 and 422 respectively The phylogenomic analysis revealed that E mollis clustered with E macrophylla in Elaeagnaceae which was closely related to Moraceae and Cannabaceae belonging to Rosales
