The complete chloroplast genome of Pluchea pteropoda Hemsl, a mangrove associate plant.

ABSTRACT: Pluchea pteropoda Hemsl is a mangrove associate plant of Asteraceae with medicinal properties such as anti-inflammation and fever-relieving. Here, our study presented the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Pluchea pteropoda Hemsl. The cp genome of P. pteropoda was 152,300 bp in length, including a large single copy (LSC) region of 84,127 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,093 bp and a pair of inverted repeats (IR) regions of 25,040 bp. A total of 111 unique genes were found, comprising 79 protein-coding genes, 28 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. The GC content of the cp genome was 37.5%. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that P. pteropoda nested in Pluchea clade, which was closely related to Ageratina adenophora and Senecio scandens. The
