Pan-mitogenome in Dipterocarpoideae: mitochondrial plastid DNAs and repeats shape the dynamic evolution of mitogenomes [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes), essential for cellular energy production and development, are characterized by rapid structural variations and highly diverse non-coding sequences.

The GC-rich mitochondrial and plastid genomes of the green alga Coccomyxa give insight into the evolution of organelle DNA nucleotide landscape. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Most of the available mitochondrial and plastid genome sequences are biased towards adenine and thymine (AT) over guanine and cytosine (GC). Examples of GC-rich organelle DNAs are limited to a small but eclectic list of species, including certain green ...

Insights into the nuclear-organelle DNA integration in Cicuta virosa (Apiaceae) provided by complete plastid and mitochondrial genomes [PDF]

BMC Genomics
Background Gene transfer between the organelles and the nucleus plays a central role in shaping plant genome evolution. The identification and analysis of nuclear DNA of plastid (NUPTs) and mitochondrial (NUMTs) origins are important for exploring the ...

Mitochondrial and plastid genomes of the colonial green alga Gonium pectorale give insights into the origins of organelle DNA architecture within the volvocales. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Volvocalean green algae have among the most diverse mitochondrial and plastid DNAs (mtDNAs and ptDNAs) from the eukaryotic domain. However, nearly all of the organelle genome data from this group are restricted to unicellular species, like Chlamydomonas ...

Genomic variation and evolutionary patterns in organelle genomes between annual and perennial Glycine species [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background The complexity of structural variations and long stretches of repetitive DNA make the analysis of plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) exceptionally challenging.

Intrageneric structural variation in organelle genomes from the genus Dystaenia (Apiaceae): genome rearrangement and mitochondrion-to-plastid DNA transfer

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionDuring plant evolution, intracellular DNA transfer (IDT) occurs not only from organelles to the nucleus but also between organelles. To further comprehend these events, both organelle genomes and transcriptomes are needed.MethodsIn this study,

Updating our view of organelle genome nucleotide landscape

Frontiers in Genetics, 2012
Organelle genomes show remarkable variation in architecture and coding content, yet their nucleotide composition is relatively unvarying across the eukaryotic domain, with most having a high adenine and thymine (AT) content. Recent studies, however, have
