The genome is 151,814 bp, consisting of inverted repeats (IRs; 26,323 bp), small single-copy (SSC; 17,524 bp), and large single-copy regions (LSC; 81,644 bp). It encodes 112 unique genes: 78 protein-coding, 30 tRNA, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis of 22 genomes shows <i>L. paradoxum</i> is closely related to <i>L. gongshanense, L. apertum,</i> and <i>L. souliei</i>. These findings enhance understanding of <i>Lilium</i>'s phylogenetic relationships and evolution, particularly the Nomocharis clade in the Hengduan Mountains.Mitochondrial DNA.
