Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Sarcandra glabra (Chloranthales) [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Sarcandra glabra is a perennial evergreen subshrub, with high ornamental and medicinal value. Using the Illumina high-throughput sequencing data, its chloroplast genome is well assembled and characterized. The complete chloroplast genome is 158,872 bp in

Leveraging off higher plant phylogenetic insights for antiplasmodial drug discovery [PDF]

Natural Products and Bioprospecting, 2023
The antimalarial drug-resistance conundrum which threatens to reverse the great strides taken to curb the malaria scourge warrants an urgent need to find novel chemical scaffolds to serve as templates for the development of new antimalarial drugs. Plants

A new vesselless angiosperm stem with a cambial variant from the Upper Cretaceous of Antarctica [PDF]

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020
We sectioned a permineralized stem preserved in marine calcareous concretions from the Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) of James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula using the cellulose-acetate peel technique.

Chloranthus genome provides insights into the early diversification of angiosperms [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2021
Chloranthales remain the last lineage of core angiosperms that lacks a nuclear genome assembly. Here, the authors report the genome assembly of Chloranthus spicatus and show its contribution to deepen our understanding on diversification, phylogeny, and ...

Exploration of the truncated cytosolic Hsp70 in plants - unveiling the diverse T1 lineage and the conserved T2 lineage [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The 70-kDa heat shock proteins (Hsp70s) are chaperone proteins involved in protein folding processes. Truncated Hsp70 (Hsp70T) refers to the variant lacking a conserved C-terminal motif, which is crucial for co-chaperone interactions or protein retention.

The Chloranthus sessilifolius genome provides insight into early diversification of angiosperms [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2021
Chloranthales remain the last lineage of core angiosperms that lacks a nuclear genome assembly. Here, the authors report the genome assembly of Chloranthus sesilifolius and show that both hybridization and incomplete lineage sorting may have contributed ...

Phylogenomic Insights into Deep Phylogeny of Angiosperms Based on Broad Nuclear Gene Sampling [PDF]

Plant Communications, 2020
Angiosperms (flowering plants) are the most diverse and species-rich group of plants. The vast majority (∼99.95%) of angiosperms form a clade called Mesangiospermae, which is subdivided into five major groups: eudicots, monocots, magnoliids ...

Comparative Analyses of 3,654 Plastid Genomes Unravel Insights Into Evolutionary Dynamics and Phylogenetic Discordance of Green Plants [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The plastid organelle is essential for many vital cellular processes and the growth and development of plants. The availability of a large number of complete plastid genomes could be effectively utilized to understand the evolution of the plastid genomes

Refined Interpretation of the Pistillate Flower in Ceratophyllum Sheds Fresh Light on Gynoecium Evolution in Angiosperms

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Molecular phylogenetic analyses have revealed a superclade of mesangiosperms with five extant lineages: monocots, eudicots, magnoliids, Ceratophyllum and Chloranthaceae. Both Ceratophyllum and Chloranthaceae are ancient lineages with a long fossil record;

Ecology and Evolution of Gall-Inducing Arthropods: The Pattern From the Terrestrial Fossil Record

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Insect and mite galls on land plants have a spotty but periodically rich and abundant fossil record of damage types (DTs), ichnotaxa, and informally described gall morphotypes.
