Abstract

Libanotis buchtormensis (Fisch.) DC. is one of the traditional Chinese herbal medicines in the Qinling District, while the genetic information is limited. In the study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of L. buchtormensis using BGISEQ-500 sequencing data. The complete chloroplast genome was 147,036 bp in length with a GC content of 37.6%, consisting of four parts, namely LSC (91,969 bp), SSC (17,469 bp), and two IRs (18,799 bp in each). The cp genome contained 127 genes, including 83 CDS genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed that L. buchtormensis was sister to Ledebouriella seseloides.

Keywords: Chloroplast genome; Libanotis buchtormensis; phylogeny.
