| Summary: | Gentiana rigescens Franch. ex Hemsl. (Gentianaceae) is an endangered medicinal plant endemic to the southwest of China. The chloroplast (cp) genome of G. rigescens was 146,891 bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 79,377 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,026 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,244 bp, forming a typical quadripartite structure. A total of 130 genes were annotated from the cp genome of G. rigescens, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that G. rigescens was closely related to G. tonggolensis with strong bootstrap values belonging to the subfamily Gentianoideae.
