Abstract
Gynandropsis gynandra (L.) Briquet is a monoecious herb species in the family Cleomaceae. It is an important commercial crop with medicinal and nutritional values. Here, we sequenced, assembled, and analyzed the complete chloroplast genome of G. gynandra. The circular genome is 158,152 bp in size, consisting of two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,181 bp, one large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,242 bp, and one small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,548 bp. The overall GC content was 35.81%. A total of 131 genes were annotated, including 37 tRNA genes, 87 protein-coding genes, and seven rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on 10 chloroplast genome sequences indicated that G. gynandra was more closely related to Tarenaya hassleriana.
