Abstract: 

Aralia atropurpurea (Araliaceae) is a perennial medicinal herb endemic to southwest China. In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. atropurpurea was reported and phylogenetic analysis was conducted. The cp genome of A. atropurpurea is 156,272 bp in length, consisting two inverted repeats (IRs, 25,963 bp), a small single copy (SSC, 18,080 bp), and a large single copy (LSC, 86,266 bp) region. It encodes 133 genes including 88 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The maximum-likelihood tree shows A. atropurpurea grouping with the other two Aralia sect. Aralia species, and a close relationship between Aralia and Panax.
