Structural Characteristics, Comparative Analyses, and Conservation Significance of the Complete Chloroplast Genome of the Critically Endangered <i>Lithocarpus yongfuensis</i> (Fagaceae). [PDF]
We assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast genome of L. yongfuensis. The genome structure, gene content, and phylogenetic relationships were analyzed, providing new insights into the species' evolutionary history. These findings offer valuable genomic resources for future studies on taxonomy, conservation, and molecular breeding of L ...

Integrating Morphology and Chloroplast Genomics: A New East Asian Species of <i>Aletris</i> (Nartheciaceae) With Insights Into Regional Phylogeny and Evolution. [PDF]
Based on morphological and chloroplast phylogenomic analyses, we describe Aletris medogensis as a new species endemic to the eastern Himalayas. Comparative genomics revealed structural variations, hypervariable markers, and signatures of positive selection in key genes, providing robust evidence for species delimitation and insights into the ...

Phylogeny and Biogeography of Endemic Festuca (Poaceae) from New Zealand Based on Nuclear (ITS) and Chloroplast (trnL–trnF) Nucleotide Sequences [PDF]
We investigated the phylogenetic relationships of the endemic New Zealand (NZ) species of Festuca (Poaceae, Pooideae) by assessing sequence variation from the nuclear internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and a chloroplast intergenic spacer (trnL–trnF) and ...
