Genome Editing of Plant Mitochondrial and Chloroplast Genomes
Plant And Cell Physiology, 2023 Abstract Plastids (including chloroplasts) and mitochondria are remnants of endosymbiotic bacteria, yet they maintain their own genomes, which encode vital components for photosynthesis and respiration, respectively. Organellar genomes have distinctive features, such as being present as multicopies, being mostly inherited maternally ...

Comparative chloroplast genomes: insights into the evolution of the chloroplast genome of Camellia sinensis and the phylogeny of Camellia [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2020 Abstract Background: Chloroplast genome resources can provide useful information for the evolution of plant species. Tea plant (Camellia sinensis) is among the most economically valuable member of Camellia. Here, we determined the chloroplast genome of the first natural triploid Chinary type tea ( ‘Wuyi narcissus’ cultivar of Camellia sinensis ...

Interfertile oaks in an island environment: I. High nuclear genetic differentiation and high degree of chloroplast DNA sharing between Q. alnifolia and Q. coccifera in Cyprus. A multipopulation study [PDF]
European Journal of Forest Research 130 (2011): pp. 543-555, 2013 The evergreen Quercus alnifolia and Q. coccifera form the only interfertile pair of oak species growing in Cyprus. Hybridization between the two species has already been observed and studied morphologically. However, little evidence exists about the extent of genetic introgression.

A generalised approach to the study and understanding of adaptive evolution
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 352-375, February 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Evolutionary theory has made large impacts on our understanding and management of the world, in part because it has been able to incorporate new data and new insights successfully. Nonetheless, there is currently a tension between certain biological phenomena and mainstream evolutionary theory.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Swertia japonica (Schult.) Makino (Gentianaceae)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2023 Swertia japonica (Schult.) Makino is a traditional medicinal plant in Japan for which the chloroplast genome has not been previously reported. The complete chloroplast genome of S. japonica was determined using a high-throughput sequencing technique. The

Amazing symmetrical clustering in chloroplast genomes [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2020 Abstract Background Previously, a seven-cluster pattern claiming to be a universal one in bacterial genomes has been reported. Keeping in mind the most popular theory of chloroplast origin, we checked whether a similar pattern is observed in chloroplast genomes.

Evolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 2864-2878, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Hybridization can promote phenotypic variation and often produces trait combinations distinct from the parental species. This increase in available variation can lead to the manifestation of functional novelty when new phenotypes bear adaptive value under the environmental conditions in which they occur. Although the role of hybridization as a

Genome hybridization: A universal way for the origin and diversification of organelles as well as the origin and speciation of eukaryotes [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The origin of organelles (mitochondrion, chloroplast and nucleus) remains enigmatic. The endosymbiotic hypothesis that chloroplasts, mitochondria and nuclei descend from the endosymbiotic cyanobacterium, bacterium and archaebacterium respectively is dominant yet uncompelling, while our discovery of de novo organelle biogenesis in the cyanobacterium ...
