%X Abstract Nicandra physalodes is an alien plant in southern China, possessing important medicinal values. In this study, we sequenced complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of N. physalodes and investigated its phylogenetic relationship in the family Solanaceae. The total length of the chloroplast genome was 156,729£¿bp, with 37.8% overall GC content and exhibited typical quadripartite structure, a pair of IRs (inverted repeats) of 25,529£¿bp was separated by a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,560£¿bp and a large single copy (LSC) region of 87,111£¿bp. The cp genome contained 113 genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated N. physalodes was closely related to Datura stramonium
