The plant family Moringaceae contains only one genus, , and is widely cultivated for its young seed pods and leaves used as vegetables and for traditional herbal medicine. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome of , assembled from whole-genome high-throughput sequencing reads, as a resource for future studies on the phylogeny and evolution of Moringaceae. The chloroplast genome was 160,600 bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 88,577 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,883 bp, separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,570 bp each. It was predicted to contain 131 genes, with an overall GC content of 36.78%. Phylogenetic analysis of 71 protein-coding sequences of 13 plant plastomes showed that is closest to .
辣木科植物仅包含一个属， ，该属植物因其嫩豆荚和叶子可作为蔬菜以及用于传统草药而被广泛种植。在本研究中，我们报道了通过全基因组高通量测序reads组装得到的 的完整叶绿体基因组，作为未来对辣木科系统发育和进化研究的资源。叶绿体基因组长度为160,600 bp，有一个88,577 bp的大单拷贝（LSC）区域，一个18,883 bp的小单拷贝（SSC）区域，由两个各为26,570 bp的反向重复（IR）区域隔开。预计它包含131个基因，总体GC含量为36.78%。对13个植物质体基因组的71个蛋白质编码序列进行的系统发育分析表明， 与 关系最为密切。
