Abstract: 
Aralia (A.) cordata is an important oriental herb belonging to the family Araliaceae. The A. cordata complete chloroplast genome was 156,087 bp, and consisted of a large single copy (LSC) region (86,101 bp), a small single copy (SSC) region (18,052 bp) and two inverted repeats (IRs) (25,967 bp). It was predicted to contain 158 genes, including 105 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNAs, and 45 transfer RNAs. The phylogenetic analysis suggests that A. cordata is closely related to the Panax genus of Araliaceae family, and A. cordata (subfamily: Aralioideae) is definitely separated the Hydrocotyloideae subfamily.
