There is still less known on flower senescence of the ornamental plant <i>Camellia lutchuensis</i>, a precious species of <i>Camellia</i> with significant commercial application value.<h4>Methods</h4>Transcriptome sequencing was used to investigate the flower senescence in five developmental stages of <i>C. lutchuensis</i>.<h4>Results</h4>By Illumina HiSeq sequencing, we generated approximately 101.16 Gb clean data and 46649 differentially expressed unigenes. Based on the different expression pattern, differentially expressed unigenes were classified into 10 Sub Class. And Sub Class 9 including 8252 unigenes, was highly expressed in the flower senesceCurrent genomicsComparative Transcriptome Analysis of Flower Senescence of <i>Camellia lutchuensis</i>.PMC91995342019YFD1001000Yin HLi XLi JYu SFan ZFeng YLiu WfalseComparative Transcriptome Analysis of Flower Senescence of <i>Camellia lutchuensis</i>.<h4>Background</h4>Flower senescence is the last stage of flower development and affects the ornamental and economic value of flower plants.
