The size of the chloroplast genome (plastome) of autotrophic angiosperms is generally conserved. However, the chloroplast genomes of some lineages are greatly expanded, which may render assembling these genomes from short read sequencing data more ...

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Swertia japonica (Schult.) Makino (Gentianaceae)
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

Characteristics of the tomato chromoplast revealed by proteomic analysis [PDF]
Chromoplasts are non-photosynthetic specialized plastids that are important in ripening tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicum) since, among other functions, they are the site of accumulation of coloured compounds.

History of chloroplast genomics [PDF]
The presence of chloroplast DNA was established in 1963. With the development of recombinant DNA technologies, chloroplast DNA was selected as one of the first candidates for genome sequencing. The first physical map was reported for maize chloroplasts in 1976.

Amazing symmetrical clustering in chloroplast genomes [PDF]
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.
