Abstract Prunus canescens is an endemic cherry species in China, which is distributed in Shaanxi, Gansu, Hubei, and Sichuan provinces of China. The chloroplast (cp) genome of P. canescens is 157,890？bp in size containing 125 unique genes, including 8 rRNA genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 80 protein-coding genes (PCGs). Phylogenetic analysis exhibited that P. canescens is most related to P. pseudocerasus
