Abstract: 
Apium graveolens L. is a worldwide popular vegetable with pharmacological efficacy. The complete chloroplast genome of A. graveolens was determined in this study. The total genome size was 152,050 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 24,743 bp, which were separated by large single copy (LSC) and small single copy (SSC) of 85,441 bp and 17,123 bp, respectively. The GC content is 37.64%. A total of 129 genes were predicted including 84 protein-coding genes, eight rRNA genes and 37 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic tree analysis of 30 species in the family Apiaceae indicated that A. graveolens was closer to Anethum, Foeniculum and Petroselinum.
