The complete chloroplast genome sequence of a cultivar of Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum morifolium var. ‘Jinsihuang’ (Asteraceae)

Chrysanthemum morifolium var. ‘Jinsihuang’, an ornamental chrysanthemum with notable medicinal and edible value, had its complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequenced, assembled, and annotated in this study. The cp genome is 151,060 bp long, exhibiting a typical quadripartite structure: an 82,858 bp large single-copy (LSC) region, an 18,294 bp small single-copy (SSC) region, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions (24,954 bp each). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that it is most closely related to Chrysanthemum × morifolium. This study provides valuable genomic resources for understanding its phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity, contributing to future research on its evolution and conservation.
