Evolution of plant ribosome-inactivating proteins [PDF]
, 2010 This contribution presents an updated analysis of the evolution of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) in plants. All evidence suggests that an ancestor of modern seed plants developed the RIP domain at least 300 million years ago.

Characterization of the complete plastid genome of the perennial herb Astragalus complanatus Bunge (Fabales: Fabaceae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2021 Astragalus complanatus Bunge is a perennial herb with high medicinal value, and is endemic to China. The plastid genome of A. complanatus was determined to be 124,213 bp in length with an A + T-biased nucleotide composition (65.7% A + T). The plastid genome harbors a total of 111 genes, including 75 protein-coding, 32 tRNA, and 4 rRNA genes.
