The plastid and mitochondrial genomes of Eucalyptus grandis

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Land plant organellar genomes have significant impact on metabolism and adaptation, and as such, accurate assembly and annotation of plant organellar genomes is an important tool in understanding the evolutionary history and interactions between these genomes.

Instability of Plastid DNA in the Nuclear Genome

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
Functional gene transfer from the plastid (chloroplast) and mitochondrial genomes to the nucleus has been an important driving force in eukaryotic evolution. Non-functional DNA transfer is far more frequent, and the frequency of such transfers from the plastid to the nucleus has been determined experimentally in tobacco using transplastomic lines ...

Degradation of key photosynthetic genes in the critically endangered semi-aquatic flowering plant Saniculiphyllum guangxiense (Saxifragaceae)

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Plastid gene loss and pseudogenization has been widely documented in parasitic and mycoheterotrophic plants, which have relaxed selective constraints on photosynthetic function.

The complete plastid genome of Kelloggia chinensis Franch. (Rubiaceae), an endemic species from East Asia

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
Kelloggia chinensis Franch. is an herbal plant species endemic to East Asia. Its complete plastid genome sequence is 155, 665 bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85, 788 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 16, 977 bp, and a pair of

Genomic perspectives on the birth and spread of plastids [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
The endosymbiotic origin of plastids from cyanobacteria was a landmark event in the history of eukaryotic life. Subsequent to the evolution of primary plastids, photosynthesis spread from red and green algae to unrelated eukaryotes by secondary and tertiary endosymbiosis.

The evolution of the plastid genomes in the holoparasitic Balanophoraceae

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
The independent transition to a heterotrophic lifestyle in plants drove remarkably convergent evolutionary trajectories, characterized by morphological modifications and reductions in their plastomes. The characteristics of the minimum plastome required for survival, if they exist, remain a topic of debate. The holoparasitic family

Mitochondrial Genome of Fagopyrum esculentum and the Genetic Diversity of Extranuclear Genomes in Buckwheat

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Fagopyrum esculentum (common buckwheat) is an important agricultural non-cereal grain plant. Despite extensive genetic studies, the information on its mitochondrial genome is still lacking.
