Abstract
The aromatic plant immortelle contains valuable bioactive molecules and a unique fragrance. These key factors contribute to its attractiveness and implementation in agricultural ecosystems as well as applications in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. In this study, we have characterized the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Helichrysum italicum subsp. italicum from the North Adriatic region. The total genome size was 152,431 bp in length, containing 85 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 2 partial genes (ycf1 and rps19). Based on the available chloroplast genomes from Gnaphalieae tribe, the closest relationship was identified with Anaphalis sinica.Keywords
