The use of chloroplast genome sequences to solve phylogenetic incongruences in Polystachya Hook (Orchidaceae Juss) [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Current evidence suggests that for more robust estimates of species tree and divergence times, several unlinked genes are required. However, most phylogenetic trees for non-model organisms are based on single sequences or just a few regions ...

Lineage‐specific evolution of mangrove plastid genomes [PDF]
The Plant Genome, 2020 Abstract Mangroves is an umbrella term for plants located across the tropics and sub‐tropics that live in the coastal region, between the sea and the land. All mangroves evolved from terrestrial plants, providing the opportunity to assess convergence, as well as the lineage‐specific features, at the genetic level.

Comparative analysis of the complete plastid genomes of Mangifera species and gene transfer between plastid and mitochondrial genomes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 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

Protein import into the endosymbiotic organelles of apicomplexan parasites [PDF]
, 2018 The organelles of endosymbiotic origin, plastids, and mitochondria, evolved through the serial acquisition of endosymbionts by a host cell. These events were accompanied by gene transfer from the symbionts to the host, resulting in most of the organellar

Rapid and accurate pyrosequencing of angiosperm plastid genomes
BMC Plant Biology, 2006 Background Plastid genome sequence information is vital to several disciplines in plant biology, including phylogenetics and molecular biology. The past five years have witnessed a dramatic increase in the number of completely sequenced plastid genomes ...

Characteristics of the tomato chromoplast revealed by proteomic analysis [PDF]
, 2010 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.

accD nuclear transfer of Platycodon grandiflorum and the plastid of early Campanulaceae
BMC Genomics, 2017 Background Campanulaceae species are known to have highly rearranged plastid genomes lacking the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) subunit D gene (accD), and instead have a nuclear (nr)-accD.

Using partial genomic fosmid libraries for sequencing complete organellar genomes
BioTechniques, 2006 Organellar genome sequences provide numerous phylogenetic markers andyield insight into organellar function and molecular evolution. These genomes are much smaller in size than their nuclear counterparts; thus, their complete sequencing is much less ...

Extensive Structural Variations Between Mitochondrial Genomes of CMS and Normal Peppers (Capsicum Annuum L.) Revealed by Complete Nucleotide Sequencing [PDF]
, 2014 Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is an inability to produce functional pollen that is caused by mutation of the mitochondrial genome. Comparative analyses of mitochondrial genomes of lines with and without CMS in several species have revealed structural ...
