description Jatropha curcas (Linnaeus, 1753) is a plant species in the order Malpighiales and the family Euphorbiaceae and is native to the tropical regions of America, such as Mexico and Argentina. Currently, this plant species inhabits tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Jatropha has been widely used as a biofuel plant to produce high-quality diesel engine fuel. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of J. curcas was assembled into 561,839 bp circular nucleotides with a GC content of 44.6%. The mitochondrial genome of J. curcas comprises 33 known protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, three rRNA genes, one ncRNA gene, and 85 open reading frame genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed this species is closely related to the castor bean (Ricinus communis).
