A perennial leguminous forage, has outstanding tolerance to abiotic stresses. The genome of is large and has a complex genetic background, making it challenging to accurately determine genetic information. However, the chloroplast genome is widely used for researching issues related to evolution, genetic diversity, and other studies.
