F. T. Wang & Tang is an herbal plant species endemic to Yunnan Province of China. Its complete plastid genome sequence was 154,704 bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,265 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,127 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26,656 bp. The whole plastid genome encoded 132 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content of plastid genome was 37.4%. Maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis based on 14 taxa indicated that is evolutionarily close to .

Genome skimming has dramatically extended DNA barcoding from short DNA fragments to next generation barcodes in plants. However, conserved DNA barcoding markers, including complete plastid genome and nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) sequences, are inadequate for accurate species identification. Skmer, a recently proposed approach that estimates genetic distances among species based on unassembled genome skims, has been proposed to effectively improve species discrimination rate.

The chloroplast genome is an important tool for studying plant classification, evolution, and the heterologous production of secondary metabolites and protein drugs. With advancements in sequencing technology and reductions in sequencing costs, chloroplast genome data have rapidly accumulated. However, existing chloroplast genome databases suffer from issues such as incomplete data, inadequate management, and inconsistent, inaccurate information, posing significant challenges for the development and utilization of the chloroplast genome.
