Comparative analysis of complete plastid genomes from Lilium lankongense Franchet and its closely related species and screening of Lilium-specific primers.

ABSTRACT: Lilium lankongense Franchet is a lily species found on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is pink with deep red spots, has a high ornamental value, and is used in hybrid breeding of horticultural lily varieties. We have insufficient knowledge of the genetic resources of L. lankongense and its phylogenetic relationships with related species. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies have shown a very close phylogenetic relationship between L. lankongense and the five species L. duchartrei, L. stewartianum, L. matangense, L. lophophorum, and L. nanum. However, molecular markers still lack sufficient signals for population-level research of the genus Lilium. We sequenced and compared the complete plastid sequences of L. lankongen
