Abstract
In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome of <em>Actinidia arguta var. purpurea.</em> The chloroplast genome is 157,369 bp long as the circular (GC ratio is 37.22%). It has four subregions: a large single-copy (LSC) region of 88,609 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 20,470 bp, and two inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 24,145 bp in each. The chloroplast genome of <em>A. arguta var. purpurea</em> contains a total of 113 unique genes, which are 79 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes, and 30 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that <em>A. arguta var. purpurea</em> has the most genetic similarity to <em>A. kolomikta</em>. These findings can be used to identify <em>Actinidia</em> species.
