In this paper, the complete chloroplast genome of <i>P. australis</i> was studied for more genetic information. The chloroplast genome was 137,561 bp in length as the circular and typical quadripartite structure, which contained a large single-copy region (LSC) of 82,328 bp, a small single-copy region (SSC) of 12,699 bp, and a pair of inverted-repeat regions (IRs) of 21,267 bp. The overall nucleotide composition of chloroplast genome is: 42,300 bp A (30.7%), 42,090 bp T (30.6%), 26,500 bp C (19.3%), 26,671 bp G (19.4%) and the total G + C content of 38.7%. However, 134 genes were found that included 87 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 39 transfer RNA (tRNAs), and 8 ribosome RNA (rRNAs). The Maximum-LikelihoMitochondrial DNA.
