Plastid Genome Evolution Across the Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae Clade (Ericales) in Relation to Carnivorous Strategies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae clade exhibits strikingly divergent carnivorous strategies, providing a framework to examine how trophic shifts influence plastid genome evolution. Comparative plastome analyses reveal recurrent ndh gene disruption across species, while Roridula gorgonias shows pronounced genomic restructuring, including elevated ...

INDEPENDENT ORIGINATION OF FLORAL ZYGOMORPHY, A PREDICTED ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO POLLINATORS: DEVELOPMENTAL AND GENETIC MECHANISMS [PDF]

, 2016
Observations of floral development indicate that floral organ initiation in pentapetalous flowers more commonly results in a medially positioned abaxial petal (MAB) than in a medially positioned adaxial petal (MAD), where the medial plane is defined by ...

Evolution of rbcL among Lathyrus and Kupicha's classification

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2014
Phylogenetic relationships in the Lathyrus genus were examined using cpDNA data, particularly data attributed to the "barcode" rbcL gene to construct a possible evolutionary scenario. Plant barcoding can be used to differentiate between species within a genus and to conserve DNA within the same species.

Dispersal and delimitation: Phylogenomics of Connaraceae prompts revised generic delimitation in Cnestideae and reveals global biogeographic patterns

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The tempo and mode of assembly of the world's most diverse, tropical floras remain poorly known. Evolutionary relationships within pantropical plant clades such as Connaraceae (Oxalidales, ca. 220 species) offer an opportunity to address this issue.

Disentangled Assembly Graphs Reveal Hidden Eukaryotic Diversity in eDNA Metagenomic Data

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Genome assembly graphs contain valuable yet frequently overlooked information that can enhance assembly completeness by revealing contig connectivity. Here, we demonstrate how leveraging these information‐rich structures enables the discovery of hidden microeukaryotic diversity in environmental DNA shotgun metagenomic datasets.

Identification of Rubisco rbcL and rbcS in Camellia oleifera and Their Potential as Molecular Markers for Selection of High Tea Oil Cultivars

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Tea oil derived from seeds of Camellia oleifera Abel. is a high-quality edible oil in China. This study isolated full-length cDNAs of Rubisco subunits rbcL and rbcS from C. oleifera. The rbcL has 1,522 bp with a 1,425 bp coding region, encoding 475 amino

Genetic Diversity Impacts Climate‐Induced Species Range Shifts

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
Genetic diversity may buffer species against climate‐driven range contractions and facilitate expansions, but its role at a global scale remains unclear. Using 4673 range shift estimates for 1888 species, we show that higher genetic diversity reduces trailing edge contractions under rapid warming and accelerates leading edge expansions under moderate ...

Molecular identification of the medicinal and edible plant Spatholobus suberectus Dunn and its counterfeits and adulterants based on rbcL barcode

CyTA - Journal of Food
The study aimed to compare and analyze the ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcL) sequences of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn and its adulterants and to explore whether rbcL could be used as the DNA barcode to effectively identify them.

Evolutionary mobility and genetic dynamics of MORFFO genes: shuttling among ancient plant lineages

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 1248-1264, April 2026.
Summary Plastid genomes (plastomes) of land plants are characterized by their architectural and genic content stability. However, fern plastomes exhibit unexpected dynamism, characterized by the presence of mobile protein‐coding genes (CDS) – Mobile Open Reading Frames in Fern Organelles (MORFFOs). We investigate the evolutionary dynamics of MORFFOs in

MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION OF PARASITIC MISTLETOE (ARCEUTHOBIUM OXYCEDRI) OF JUNIPER ECOSYSTEM FROM DISTRICT ZIARAT, BALOCHISTAN, PAKISTAN

FUUAST Journal of Biology, 2021
DNA barcoding is very effective tool in discriminating plants. Parasitic plants are responsible for destruction of plant locality. Arceuthobium oxycedri is a major cause of decline of Juniper forest Ziarat. There was no record of molecular data regarding
