AbstractPhlomoides kirghisorum Adylov, Kamelin & Makhmedov 1987 is one of the poorly studied narrow endemics of Fergana Valley, one of Central Asia’s most densely human-populated regions. In this study, we sequenced, assembled, and characterized the complete plastome of P. kirghisorum by using high-throughput Illumina reads. The complete chloroplast genome consisted of 151,324 bp, including a large single-copy (LSC) region (82,775 bp), a small single-copy (SSC) region (17,357 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (25,596 bp each). In the chloroplast genome of P. kirghisorum, 133 genes were detected, comprising 88 protein-encoding genes, eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 37 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that the genetic relationship between P. kirghisorum and P. alpina was very close. This study provides basic information to explore the molecular evolution of the Phlomoides genus and the Lamiaceae family.
