Abstract

Lour. 1790 is a precious medicinal plant species, especially for treating chronic liver diseases. Genomic data on are limited. Therefore, this current study aimed to characterize the chloroplast genome of and reconstruct the phylogenetic relationship among Helicteroideae taxa. Consequently, the complete chloroplast genome of was 163,404 bp in length and contained 113 unique genes (79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes). Notably, two introns of gene of were lost in comparison to that of other Helicteroideae species. The phylogenetic tree based on chloroplast genomes of eleven Helicteroideae species revealed that was closely related to species. In conclusion, our study described the first complete chloroplast genome of , which is essential for tracing evolutionary history in the Helicteroideae subfamily.
