Popis: AbstractTorenia violacea (Azaola) Pennell 1943 as a traditional Chinese medicine plant, has been used to treat multiple diseases. In this study, we sequenced, assembled, and characterized the complete plastome of T. violacea. The plastome (OQ167784) exhibited a typical quadripartite structure, with a total length of 154,007 bp, comprising a pair of inverted repeats (IRs; 24,809 bp) separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region (85,559 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (18,830 bp). Through genome annotation, we identified 133 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, eight rRNA genes, and 38 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a close relationship between T. violacea and T. fournieri. The research results provide basic genetic resources for the development of species identification and investigation of phylogenetic relationships in the Torenia genus.
