Popis: Bougainvillea glabra is an ornamental plant that is domesticated in many tropical and sub-tropical countries. The focus on its breeding programmes has overshadowed genetic studies of this important species. In this study, we reported on the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of B. glabra. The cp genome is 154,763 bp in size, comprised of a large single copy (LSC) region of 85,921 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,018 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,412 bp each. A total of 131 genes were predicted, including 37 tRNA, 8 rRNA, and 86 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that B. glabra is placed under Nyctaginaceae and sister to B. spectabilis under a strong bootstrap support.
