Abstract

The first complete chloroplast genome of Campylotropis grandifolia Schindl. is reported and characterized in this study. The whole chloroplast genome was 153,213 bp in length with 128 genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, 39 tRNAs, and eight rRNAs. Maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis of 25 legume species strongly supported that Campylotropis is most closely related with Kummerowia and Lespedeza, which is consistent with previous studies.

Keywords: Campylotropis grandifolia; chloroplast genome; phylogeny.
