In the normal state above the superconducting transition temperature (Tc), the momentum-resolved electronic structure of the high-Tc cuprate shows a depletion dubbed the psudogap, which becomes less pronounced with doping. Its relation to the high-Tc superconductivity has been a key issue, and the possible rotational symmetry breaking in this state has been reported suggesting a peculiar electronic ordering preceding the superconducting pairing. Here we provide direct evidence for a systematic evolution of the pseudogap phase via angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on another family of high-Tc superconductor, iron-pnictides. We observe the P-substitution evolution of pseudogap in BaFe2(As1-xPx)2, which develops well above the magnetostructural transitions and persists above the nonmagnetic superconducting dome, showing a notable similarity with cuprates. In addition, the pseudogap formation is accompanied by inequivalent energy shifts in zx/yz orbitals of iron atoms, indicative of a peculiar iron orbital ordering which breaks the fourfold rotational symmetry.
