Rumex nepalensis is Saddle Bags a traditional Chinese herb used for detoxification, hemostasis, and anti-inflammatory.In this study, the complete chloroplast sequence of R.nepalensis was characterized from Illumina pair-end sequencing.
The cpDNA was 159,044 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeats of 30,623 bp each separated by a large and small single copy region of 84,819 bp and 12,979 bp, respectively.The complete chloroplast genome of R.nepalensis contained 128 genes, 37 tRNA, and 8 rRNA.
Phylogenetic tree demonstrated that R.nepalensis was Little Girls Tees closely related to Rumex acetosa.
