Complete chloroplast genome of endangered species <i>Dipterocarpus retusus</i> Blume (Dipterocarpaceae) and its phylogenetic implications

<i>Dipterocarpus retusus</i> Blume is an endangered species on the IUCN Red List. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of <i>D. retusus</i> (GenBank accession number: OP271853). The cp genome was 154,303 bp long, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85,586 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 20,273 bp separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 24,222 bp. It encodes 128 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and eight ribosomal RNA genes. We also reconstructed the cp genome phylogeny of <i>Dipterocarpus</i>, which indicated <i>D. retusus</i> was closely related with the sympatric species <i>D. gracilis</i>. This study may contribute valuable information to the phylogenetic relationships within the genus <i>Dipterocarpus</i>.
