Popis: Liriope platyphylla is used as an important medicinal plant for fatigue, cough, and inflammation in South Korea. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of L. platyphylla. The total genome size of the chloroplast is 157,076 bp with a large single-copy region (LSC: 85,374 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC: 18,748 bp), and inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb: 26,477 bp). The GC content of the L. platyphylla chloroplast was 37.6%. The cp genome encoded a set of 129 genes, including 83 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree analysis indicated that L. platyphylla is closely related to L. spicata.
