Sumario:Cyperus rotundus L. (C. rotundus) is a sedge belonging to the family Cyperaceae and is widely distributed in tropical and warmer temperate regions worldwide. It is one of the oldest traditional medicinal herbs in China, India, Japan, and Korea. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of C. rotundus on the Illumina HiSeq Platform. The chloroplast genome is 182,986 bp in length, with a typical quadripartite structure and consisting of a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (35,969 bp) separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region (100,733 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (10,315 bp). It was predicted to contain a total of 133 genes, with an overall GC content of 33.26%. Phylogenetic analysis suggested C. rotundus is sister to Eleocharis celluosa and Eleocharis dulcis.
