The subfamily Caesalpinioideae of the Fabaceae has long been recognized as non-monophyletic due to its controversial phylogenetic relationships. Cercis chuniana, endemic to China, is a representative species of Cercis L. placed within Caesalpinioideae in the older sense. Here, we report the whole chloroplast (cp) genome of C. chuniana and compare it to six other species from the Caesalpinioideae. Comparative analyses of gene synteny and simple sequence repeats (SSRs), as well as estimation of nucleotide diversity, the relative ratios of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions (dn/ds), and Kimura 2-parameter (K2P) interspecific genetic distances, were all conducted. The whole cp genome of C. chuniana was found to be 158,433 bp long with a total of 114 genes, 81 of which code for proteins. Nucleotide substitutions and length variation are present, particularly at the boundaries among large single copy (LSC), inverted repeat (IR) and small single copy (SSC) regions. Nucleotide diversity among all species was estimated to be 0.03, the average dn/ds ratio 0.3177, and the average K2P value 0.0372. Ninety-one SSRs were identified in C. chuniana, with the highest proportion in the LSC region. Ninety-seven species from the old Caesalpinioideae were selected for phylogenetic reconstruction, the analysis of which strongly supports the monophyly of Cercidoideae based on the new classification of the Fabaceae. Our study provides genomic information for further phylogenetic reconstruction and biogeographic inference of Cercis and other legume species.
