Abstract
Leibnitzia Cass 1822 is a medicinally important herb in the Mutisieae tribe, Asteraceae family. This study reports the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Leibnitzia nepalensis (Kunze) Kitamura, 1983. The quadripartite cp genome is 151,518 bp in length with 37.8% GC content, consisting of a large single copy region (83,071 bp), a small single copy region (18,365 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (25,041 bp). It encoded 130 genes, including 86 protein-coding, 36 tRNA, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the Leibnitzia is sister to the Gerbera. This study will be beneficial for the future phylogenetic and taxonomic studies of the Leibnitzia.
