Popis: Cenchrus ciliaris is an important pasture resource for arid region and owing to apomixis, it has been very important for development and distribution of cultivars and agro-types. In present study complete chloroplast genome of C. ciliaris was sequenced. The size of chloroplast genome is 138737 bp length with overall GC content 38.6%. It exhibited regular quadripartite structure with 81053 bp of LSC region, 16108 bp of SSC region and 20788 bp of each IR region. A total of 130 genes were identified, including 87 coding genes, 32 tRNAs, 7 ribosomal RNAs and 4 pseudogenes. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using 13 other members representing major subfamilies of Poaceae.
