| Summary: | Lilium concolor var. pulchellum is a perennial herbaceous plant with high ornamental and edible value; it is a critical breeding parent of Asiatic hybrids. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of L. concolor var. pulchellum. The total size of the genome is 152,126 bp with a GC content of 37.0%. It has a conserved quadripartite structure comprising 136 genes, including 38 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes, 83 protein-coding genes, and 7 pseudogenes. Phylogenetic analysis strongly supported a close relation between L. concolor var. pulchellum and L. callosum. The complete plastome sequence of L. concolor var. pulchellum could provide useful information for phyletic evolution of the genus Lilium.
