Cinnamomum camphora , a member of the  Lauraceae  family, is a valuable aromatic and timber tree that is indigenous to the south of China and Japan. All parts of  Cinnamomum camphora  have secretory cells containing different volatile chemical compounds that are utilized as herbal medicines and essential oils. Here, we reported the complete sequencing of the chloroplast genome of  Cinnamomum camphora  using illumina technology. The chloroplast genome of  Cinnamomum camphora  is 152,570 bp in length and characterized by a relatively conserved quadripartite structure containing a large single copy region of 93,705 bp, a small single copy region of 19,093 bp and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 19,886 bp. Overall, the genome contained 123 coding regions, of which 15 were repeated in the IR regions. An analysis of chloroplast sequence divergence revealed that the small single copy region was highly variable among the different genera in the  Lauraceae  family. A total of 40 repeat structures and 83 simple sequence repeats were detected in both the coding and non-coding regions. A phylogenetic analysis indicated that  Calycanthus  is most closely related to  Lauraceae , both being members of  Laurales , which forms a sister group to  Magnoliids . The complete sequence of the chloroplast of  Cinnamomum camphora  will aid in in-depth taxonomical studies of the  Lauraceae  family in the future. The genetic sequence information will also have valuable applications for chloroplast genetic engineering.
