Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome sequence of <i>Artemisia sylvatica</i> Maximowicz 1859 (Asteraceae)

<i>Artemisia sylvatica</i> Maximowicz 1859 is one of the medicinal herbs in <i>Artemisia</i>. This study presents the complete chloroplast genome of <i>A. sylvatica</i>, sequenced using the Illumina NovaSeq platform. The genome is 151,161 bp in length, featuring a GC content of 38%. It consists of a large single-copy (LSC) region of 82,892 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,353 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 24,958 bp each. In total, the genome contains 132 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis positions <i>A. sylvatica</i> within the subgenus <i>Artemisia</i>, highlighting its evolutionary relationships within this diverse genus. The first chloroplast genome of <i>A. sylvatica</i> was reported in this work contributes to the enrichment of genomic data for the genus <i>Artemisia</i>.
