Chloroplast Genomes of Croton alabamensis and Croton bonplandianus (Euphorbiaceae): Comparative Analysis With Related Croton Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Croton chloroplast genomes exhibit substantial structural diversity driven mainly by asymmetric inverted repeats (IRs) contraction and expansion, despite highly conserved gene content. IR boundary shifts predominantly involved the LSC region, indicating an LSC‐driven evolutionary pattern. The preliminary phylogenomic analyses confirmed the monophyly of
