Abstract
Tagetes erecta (Asteraceae) has been wildly cultivated as ornamental and medicinal plant. Here, we reported the first chloroplast genome sequence of T. erecta. The chloroplast genome size is 152,065 bp with GC content of 37.4%, including a large single-copy (LSC) of 83,895 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) of 18,065 bp, and a pair of 25,048 bp IR (inverted repeat) regions. A total of 132 genes were annotated including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that T. erecta belongs to the subfamily Asteroideae.
