Abstract
Clerodendrum cyrtophyllum is a well-known medicinal plant in southern China. Here, we presented the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. cyrtophyllum using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology. The C. cyrtophyllum cp genome size is 152,004 bp with 38.13% GC content, including a pair of inverted repeat regions (IR, 51,592 bp) separated by a large single copy (LSC, 86,480 bp) and a small single copy region (SSC, 18,425 bp). It possesses 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis fully shows that C. cyrtophyllum is closely related to Clerodendrum bungei and Clerodendrum lindleyi. Overall, the complete cp genome sequence of C. cyrtophyllum provides a valuable resource for genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationship, and species identification.
