The chloroplast (cp) genome sequence is determined and analyzed for for the first time. The cp genome was 150,369 bp in length, containing a large single-copy (LSC) of 82,795 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) of 16,854 bp, which were separated by a pair of 25,360 bp inverted repeats (IRs). The overall G + C content of the cp genome amounted to 37.7%. In total, 113 unique genes were annotated, consisting of 79 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 30 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), and four ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs). Among these genes, 18 contained one or two introns. A maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis based on 33 taxa showed that formed a clade with . This study will provide a baseline as well as valuable molecular phylogenomic information for various future studies to determine the taxonomic position and phylogenetic relationships of the genus .
