Abstract

Phyla nodiflora (Linnaeus) Greene (1899) is a perennial creeping herb belonging to the family Verbenaceae. It has numerous pharmacological properties, including anti-dandruff, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-melanogenesis, anti-hypertensive, and anti-hyperuricemic properties. We generated the complete chloroplast genome sequence of P. nodiflora using Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The P. nodiflora chloroplast genome is 154,341 bp in length, containing a large single copy (LSC) region of 85,185 bp and a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,222 bp, separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,967 bp. The genome contained 128 genes, including 86 protein-coding, 34 tRNA, and eight rRNA genes. Six genes had one intron, one gene had two introns, and the others did not have an intron. Overall GC content of the chloroplast genome was 39%, while those of LSC, SSC, and IR regions were 38.2%, 33.7%, and 44%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the chloroplast genome revealed that P. nodiflora is closely related to the other species from Verbenaceae.
