Chimonobambusa hirtinoda is a threatened species and only naturally distributed in Doupeng Mountain, Duyun, Guizhou, China. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is used obtained the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of C. hirtinoda, and then the sequence was assembled and analyze for phylogenetic and evolutionary. We also analyzed comparing the cp genome among Chimonobambusa species with previously published. The complete cp genome of C. hirtinoda has the total length of 139, 561 bp, 38.90% GC content was detected. A total of 130 genes were founded in the cp genome, including 85 protein coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA. Some genes are missing and the introns occur lost in the cp genome of C. hirtinoda. A total of 48 simple sequence repeat (SSR) were detected and by measuring the codon usage frequency of amino acids, the A/U preference of the third nucleotide in the cp genome of C. hirtinoda was obtained. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis using complete cp sequences, matk gene exhibited genetic relationship within the Chimonobambusa genus.
