Abstract
Stilpnolepis centiflora, a monotypic genus of the Asteraceae, is an endemic desert species in Northern China. However, information on the chloroplast (cp) genome of this species is limited. In this study, we present the complete chloroplast genome sequence of S. centiflora obtained by high-throughput nextgeneration sequencing technology. The whole cp genome was 151017 bp long and comprised 133 genes, including 88 proteincoding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The S. centiflora cp genome had a GC content of 37.35%. Phylogenetic tree revealed that S. centiflora was closely related to the taxa in the genus Artemisia and Chrysanthemum. Our results would be helpful for species identification and promote our understanding of the phylogeny of Stilpnolepis within the Asteraceae family.
