First record of the complete chloroplast genome of the Sri Lankan endemic species, Artocarpus nobilis Thwaites (Moraceae).

Artocarpus nobilis Thwaites (Moraceae), endemic to Sri Lanka and classified as Vulnerable, was subjected to complete chloroplast genome sequencing and analysis. The 161,196-bp long genome had a GC content of 36% and comprised a large single-copy region of 89,878 bp, a short single-copy region of 19,982 bp, and two inverted repeats of 25,668 bp each. It contained 131 genes, including 86 protein-coding, eight rRNA, and 37 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed A. nobilis is closely related to A. heterophyllus and A. integer. These genomic data support future conservation and breeding studies.
