Abstract
The complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Myuroclada maximowiczii (GenBank accession number MT726030), a species of moss in the Brachytheciaceae family, was determined using Illumina HiSeq paired-end sequencing data. The total size of the cp genome was 124,607 bp. The genome contained a large single-copy (LSC) region of 86,684 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,483 bp, and a pair of identical inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 9,720 bp. The genome contained 82 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The cp genome presented here will provide useful information for future phylogenetic and evolutionary studies of Myuroclada species.
