Abstract

We have sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of Hemerocallis fulva, a species of the Asphodelaceae family, through Illumina HiSeq paired-end sequencing. The total size of chloroplast genome of Hemerocallis fulva was 155,855 bp with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84,607 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,508 bp, and a pair of identical inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26,370 bp. The genome contained a total of 112 genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 29 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 4 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The phylogenetic analysis of Hemerocallis fulva with 10 related species exhibited the closest taxonomical relationship with Aloe species in the Asphodelaceae family.
