Plastid Phylogenomics of Elatostemateae (Urticaceae): Insights Into Structural Variation and Phylogenetic Relationships [PDF]
This study leverages complete plastid and nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences from 40 species to resolve the complex phylogeny and organellar genome evolution of the diverse plant tribe Elatostemateae. The analysis uncovered significant plastome structural variations, including novel inversions and a rare mitochondrial DNA integration event, and identified
