The complete plastome sequence of Lilium wahingtonianum Kellogg (Liliaceae)

Lilium washingtonianum Kellogg is native to Western America and grows on slope in high subalpine. In the present study, the complete plastome of L. washingtonianum was sequenced. The plastome sequence was 151,967 bp long, with a large single copy region of 81,393 bp, a small single copy region of 17,352 bp, and two inverted repeat regions of 26,611 bp each. Total 133 genes were identified, including 83 coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNAs, 38 transfer RNAs, and 4 pseudogenes. Among four pseudogenes, pseudo ndhF gene was the first to report among Lilium species so far. The phylogenetic position of L. washingtonianum was sister to L. superbum but American lilies were not monophyletic.
