Adenostemma lavenia is a perennial medical herb in the family Asteraceae.Here, we sequenced and analyzed the complete chloroplast genome of A.lavenia.The complete chloroplast genome size is 150,063 bp with a GC content of 37.63%.

The A.lavenia chloroplast genome is a typical quadripartite structure, including a large single-copy c-safe wire region (LSC) of 82,017 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,142 bp separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 24,952 bp each.A total of 114 unique genes, including 29 tRNA genes, four rRNA genes, and 81 protein-coding genes were found in the chloroplast genome.Phylogenetic analysis revealed that A.lavenia is more closely related with Boxspring Chromolaena odorata.
