Sesbania cannabina (Retz.) Poir. (Fabaceae) is an annual herb, widely distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions. In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of S. cannabina was reported and phylogenetic analysis was conducted with Fabaceae species based on the cp genome sequences. The cp genome of S. cannabina is 156,894 bp in length, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IR, 25,465 bp), a small single-copy (SSC, 18,837bp) and a large single-copy (LSC, 87128 bp) region. It encodes 126 genes including 81 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The Maximum Likelihood tree shows S. cannabina which is nested in Hologalegina clade of the subfamily Papilionoideae (Fabaceae).
