<i>Carya luodianensis</i> (Juglandaceae), a New Species From Guizhou Province, Southern China, Revealed by Morphological and Plastid Evidence. [PDF]
Ecol EvolCarya luodianensis (Juglandaceae), a new species, is described and illustrated. We combined morphological characteristics, comparative plastome analyses, and phylogenetic analysis, all of which support the recognition of C. luodianensis as a new species and highlight its evolutionary divergence within Carya. ABSTRACT Carya luodianensis Y.B. Yang & M.T.

<i>Gigantochloa falcihumeris</i> (Poaceae, Bambusoideae), a New Paleotropical Woody Bamboo Species From Southwest Yunnan, China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe describe Gigantochloa falcihumeris, a new species of paleotropical woody bamboo discovered in Southwest Yunnan, China. It is distinguished by its culm leaf sheath shoulders that prominently rise into a distinctive ca. 1 cm long falcate point.

Phylogenomics, ecomorphological evolution, and historical biogeography in Deuterocohnia (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae). [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

<i>Aleuritopteris hainanensis</i> (Pteridaceae), a New Species From Hainan, China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolA new fern species, Aleuritopteris hainanensis, is described from Hainan Province, China, closely resembling A. squamosa but differing in fertile/sterile frond length and scale morphology. Plastome analysis confirms its distinctness, showing significant genetic divergence from A. squamosa.

Complex plastome structural variation caused by intermolecular and intramolecular recombination accounts for leaf variegation in Heptapleurum ellipticum [PDF]
Plant DiversityPlastome variation, including single spontaneous nucleotide substitutions and single insertions/deletions, is the major source of leaf variegation in plants.

Progress, challenge and prospect of plant plastome annotation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The plastome (plastid genome) represents an indispensable molecular data source for studying phylogeny and evolution in plants. Although the plastome size is much smaller than that of nuclear genome, and multiple plastome annotation tools have been ...
