Genome evolution of a tertiary dinoflagellate plastid.
The dinoflagellates have repeatedly replaced their ancestral peridinin-plastid by plastids derived from a variety of algal lineages ranging from green algae to diatoms. Here, we have characterized the genome of a dinoflagellate plastid of tertiary origin

Plastid genomes are useful markers in resolving plant phylogenetic relationships for various taxonomic groups. Here, we sequenced and de novo assembled the complete plastid genome sequence of an Antarctic moss Chorisodontium aciphyllum (Hook. f. & Wilson)

Summary: Plastid-nucleus genome coordination is crucial for plastid activity, but the mechanisms remain unclear. By treating Arabidopsis plants with the organellar genome-damaging agent ciprofloxacin, we found that plastid genome instability can alter ...

Strategies for complete plastid genome sequencing [PDF]
Plastid sequencing is an essential tool in the study of plant evolution. This high-copy organelle is one of the most technically accessible regions of the genome, and its sequence conservation makes it a valuable region for comparative genome evolution ...

The Plastid Genome of the Cryptomonad Teleaulax amphioxeia.
Teleaulax amphioxeia is a photosynthetic unicellular cryptophyte alga that is distributed throughout marine habitats worldwide. This alga is an important plastid donor to the dinoflagellate Dinophysis caudata through the ciliate Mesodinium rubrum in the ...

Comparative analysis of the complete plastid genomes of Mangifera species and gene transfer between plastid and mitochondrial genomes [PDF]
Mango is an important commercial fruit crop belonging to the genus Mangifera. In this study, we reported and compared four newly sequenced plastid genomes of the genus Mangifera, which showed high similarities in overall size (157,780–157,853 bp), genome

Does the mode of plastid inheritance influence plastid genome architecture?
Plastid genomes show an impressive array of sizes and compactnesses, but the forces responsible for this variation are unknown. It has been argued that species with small effective genetic population sizes are less efficient at purging excess DNA from ...

Complete plastid genome of Cumathamnion serrulatum (Ceramiales, Rhodophyta)
We report the complete plastid genome of Cumathamnion serrulatum, also known as Delesseria serrulata. The plastid genome was 174,192 bp in size. Annotation showed there were 193 protein coding genes, three ribosomal RNAs, and 29 transfer RNAs. One intron

Genomic Insights into Plastid Evolution [PDF]
Abstract The origin of plastids (chloroplasts) by endosymbiosis stands as one of the most important events in the history of eukaryotic life. The genetic, biochemical, and cell biological integration of a cyanobacterial endosymbiont into a heterotrophic host eukaryote approximately a billion years ago paved the way for the evolution ...
