Buddleja alternifolia is China’s specialty, and scattered in northwest China. Here, we assembled and characterized the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of B. alternifolia using Illumina sequencing data for the first time. The complete cp genome was 154,280 bp in length, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats of 25,440 bp, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85,330 bp, and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,070 bp. The genome encoded 115 unique genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 31 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16 complete cp genome sequences indicated that B. alternifolia is closely related to Buddleja colvilei.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Buddleja alternifolia, a perennial garden plant and common medicinal plant is widely distributed in west China. The plastome is 154,357 bp in length, with one large single copy region of 85,406 bp, one small single copy region of 18,071 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,440 bp. It contains 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA, and 37 transfer RNA. Phylogenetic tree shows that B. alternifolia formed one clade with Buddleja colvilei and Buddleja sessilifolia. The published plastome of B. alternifolia provides significant insight for elucidating the phylogenetic relationship of taxa genus Buddleja.
