The complete chloroplast genome of <i>Saccharum fulvum</i> (Poaceae)

<i>Saccharum</i> species are of great importance as fruit crops due to their economic and food value. <i>S. fulvum</i> is a wild relative of sugarcane that has a wide geographic distribution and is well-adapted to various environmental conditions. It exhibits high resistance to pests, diseases, drought, cold, and degraded soils, making it a valuable resource for sugarcane research. Here, we report the chloroplast genome of <i>S. fulvum</i>. This chloroplast genome was 141,151 bp in length with a GC content of 38.41%. The large single-copy, small single-copy, and inverted repeat regions were 83,030 bp, 12,533 bp, and 22,794 bp in length, respectively. The chloroplast genome contained 111 different genes, including 77 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes, and 30 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that <i>S. fulvum</i> was closely related to <i>S. narenga</i>. This study not only enriches the genome information of <i>Saccharum</i>, but also will be useful for the evolutionary study of the family Poaceae.
