The complete chloroplast genome of Thalictrum baicalense Turcz. ex Ledeb.

Thalictrum baicalense Turcz. ex Ledeb. is a well-known herbaceous perennid that has been used as a traditional medicine to treat influenza, hepatitis, and detoxfeaction. In this study, we release and detail the complete chloroplast genome sequences of T. baicalense. The whole chloroplast genome was 155,859 bp in length and comprised 130 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, eight rRNA genes. The T. baicalense chloroplast genome had a GC content of 38.39%. The phylogenetic relationships inferred that T. baicalense, T. tenue, T. minus and T. petaloideum are closely related to each other within the genus Thalictrum.
