Complete Chloroplast Genome of Sedum sarmentosum and Chloroplast Genome Evolution in Saxifragales [PDF]
Comparative chloroplast genome analyses are mostly carried out at lower taxonomic levels, such as the family and genus levels. At higher taxonomic levels, chloroplast genomes are generally used to reconstruct phylogenies. However, little attention has been paid to chloroplast genome evolution within orders.

Plastid phylogenomics and fossil evidence provide new insights into the evolutionary complexity of the 'woody clade' in Saxifragales. [PDF]
Abstract Background The “woody clade” in Saxifragales (WCS), encompassing four woody families (Altingiaceae, Cercidiphyllaceae, Daphniphyllaceae, and Hamamelidaceae), is a phylogenetically recalcitrant node in the angiosperm tree of life, as the interfamilial relationships of the WCS remain contentious.

Echeveria lilacina Kimnach & Moran 1980 is a succulent plant having ornamental and ecological importance. In this study, the first complete chloroplast genome of Echeveria lilacina, a species belonging to the Crassulaceae family, was characterized from the de novo assembly of Illumina NovaSeq 6000 paired-end sequencing data. The chloroplast genome of E.

Resolving an Ancient, Rapid Radiation in Saxifragales [PDF]
Despite the prior use of approximately 9000 bp, deep-level relationships within the angiosperm clade, Saxifragales remain enigmatic, due to an ancient, rapid radiation (89.5 to 110 Ma based on the fossil record). To resolve these deep relationships, we constructed several new data sets: (1) 16 genes representing the three genomic compartments within ...

Complete plastome sequence of Paeonia lactiflora Pall. (Paeoniaceae: Saxifragales) [PDF]
Paeonia lactiflora has been listed as an Endangered species in Russian Federation. The complete plastome was assembled from Next-Generation Sequencing data. It is 152,747 bp in length. It consists of a pair of Inverted Repeat regions (25,651 bp), separated by a small single copy region of 17,033 bp and a large single copy region of 84,412 bp.

Elatinaceae are sister to Malpighiaceae; Peridiscaceae belong to Saxifragales [PDF]
Phylogenetic data from plastid (ndhF and rbcL) and nuclear (PHYC) genes indicate that, within the order Malpighiales, Elatinaceae are strongly supported as sister to Malpighiaceae. There are several putative morphological synapomorphies for this clade; most notably, they both have a base chromosome number of X = 6 (or some multiple of three or six ...

Phylogeny of Saxifragales (Angiosperms, Eudicots): Analysis of a Rapid, Ancient Radiation [PDF]
Rapid, ancient radiations pose one of the most difficult challenges for phylogenetic estimation. We used DNA sequence data of 9,006 aligned base pairs from five genes (chloroplast atpB, matK, rbcL, and 18S and 26S nrDNA) to elucidate relationships among major lineages of Saxifragales (angiosperms, eudicots). These relationships were poorly supported in

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of the traditional medicinal plants Rhodiola rosea (Saxifragales: Crassulaceae) [PDF]
Rhodiola rosea L. is used in herbal medicine in many countries for a long time. Here, its complete chloroplast genome was assembled and annotated. The genome is 151,348 bp long and comprises a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs, 25,790 bp each), a large single-copy region (LSC, 82,716 bp), and a small single-copy region (SSC, 17,052 bp). It contained

The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Paeonia lactiflora Pall. (Saxifragales: Paeoniaceae): Evidence of Gene Transfer from Chloroplast to Mitochondrial Genome. [PDF]
Paeonia lactiflora (P. lactiflora), a perennial plant renowned for its medicinal roots, provides a unique case for studying the phylogenetic relationships of species based on organelle genomes, as well as the transference of DNA across organelle genomes.

Assembled Plastid and Mitochondrial Genomes, as well as Nuclear Genes, Place the Parasite Family Cynomoriaceae in the Saxifragales [PDF]
Cynomoriaceae, one of the last unplaced families of flowering plants, comprise one or two species or subspecies of root parasites that occur from the Mediterranean to the Gobi Desert. Using Illumina sequencing, we assembled the mitochondrial and plastid genomes as well as some nuclear genes of a Cynomorium specimen from Italy.
