Abstract
Phlomoides rotata (Benth. ex Hook.f.) Mathiesen is a perennial herb endemic to Qinghai-Tibet Plateau with important medicinal properties. Here, we sequenced and analyzed the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. rotata and reconstructed the phylogeny of P. rotata based on 24 cp genomes. The genome of P. rotata is 151,825 bp in length, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,129 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,398 bp. A total of 131 genes were identified, of which 86 are protein-coding genes, 37 are transfer RNA genes, and eight are ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that the species P. rotata is closely related to Phlomoides alpina with bootstrap support (BS) values of 100%. Overall, the genomic resources presented in this study will be beneficial for further studies on evolutionary patterns of P. rotata and its closely related species.
