The complete chloroplast genomes of two species of (Zygophyllaceae).

and are two important desert plants from Zygophyllaceae, which are both widely distributed in north-western China. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome sequences of and , which are 109,577 bp and 108,695 bp in length, respectively. The inverted repeat regions, the large single-copy region and the small single-copy region of are 5084 bp, 83,735 bp, and 15,674 bp in length, respectively, while those of are 4669 bp, 82,293 bp and 17,064 bp in length, respectively. A total of 98 genes were annotated in the genome of including 29 tRNA, 4 rRNA and 65 protein-coding genes, and 100 genes were annotated in the genome of including 31 tRNA, 4 rRNA and 65 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed clustered and formed a monophyletic group sister to .
