This study presents the first-ever complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of
Oxytropis ochrocephala
Bunge 1874, a member of the Fabaceae family. The cp genome spans 126,996 base pairs and includes 109 genes, comprising 76 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Notably, the genome lacks an inverted repeat (IR) region. Additionally, we constructed phylogenetic trees for 34 species within Trib. Galegeae, employing both maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian inference (BI) methods. These analyses robustly support the monophyly of the
Oxytropis
species, evidenced by high bootstrap values (BP = 100) and posterior probabilities (PP = 1). Within this clade,
O. ochrocephala
exhibits a sister relationship with other
Oxytropis
species. Our findings provide valuable insights into the genetic makeup and evolutionary relationships of
O. ochrocephala
within the Galegeae tribe.
