Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of Crotalaria pallida was obtained using the high-throughput sequencing technology in this article. The complete chloroplast genomes of this species were 152,658 bp in length, consisting of a large single-copy region (LSC) of 83,652 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,028 bp, which were separated by a pair of inverted repeat (IRs) regions of 25,489 bp. The chloroplast genome contained 111 unique genes, including 77 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The phylogenomic relationship analysis suggested that C. pallida was closely related to Lupinus in the family of Leguminosae.
