Complete plastid genome of Cumathamnion serrulatum (Ceramiales, Rhodophyta)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 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

Extensive plastome reduction and loss of photosynthesis genes in Diphelypaea coccinea, a holoparasitic plant of the family Orobanchaceae [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Parasitic plants have the ability to obtain nutrients from their hosts and are less dependent on their own photosynthesis or completely lose this capacity. The reduction in plastid genome size and gene content in parasitic plants predominantly

Does the Mode of Plastid Inheritance Influence Plastid Genome Architecture?
PLoS ONE, 2012 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 their genomes than those with large effective population sizes.

BMC Plant Biology, 2007 Background Plastid genome content and protein sequence are highly conserved across land plants and their closest algal relatives. Parasitic plants, which obtain some or all of their nutrition through an attachment to a host plant, are often a striking ...

airpg: automatically accessing the inverted repeats of archived plastid genomes
BMC Bioinformatics, 2021 Background In most flowering plants, the plastid genome exhibits a quadripartite genome structure, comprising a large and a small single copy as well as two inverted repeat regions. Thousands of plastid genomes have been sequenced and submitted to public

Analysis of the Plastid Genome Sequence During Maize Seedling Development
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 Shoot development in maize progresses from small, non-pigmented meristematic cells to expanded cells in the green leaf. During this transition, large plastid DNA (ptDNA) molecules in proplastids become fragmented in the photosynthetically-active ...
