The recent developments in high-throughput DNA sequencing allowed major advances in
organelle genomics. Assembly of mitochondrial genomes (hereafter mitogenomes) in higher …

Background Plant mitogenomes vary widely in size and genomic architecture. Although
hundreds of plant mitogenomes of angiosperm species have already been sequence …

Plant mitochondrial genomes are a valuable source of genetic information for a better
understanding of phylogenetic relationships. However, no mitochondrial genome of any …

Background Mitochondrial genomes of flowering plants (angiosperms) are highly dynamic in
genome structure. The mitogenome of the earliest angiosperm Amborella is remarkable in …

Zizania latifolia (Griseb.) Turcz. ex Stapf has been cultivated as a popular aquatic vegetable
in China due to its important nutritional, medicinal, ecological, and economic values. The …

Currently, complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are available from all major land
plant lineages except ferns. Sequencing of fern mitogenomes could shed light on the major …

The mitochondrial genomes of flowering plants are well known for their large size, variable
coding-gene set and fluid genome structure. The available mitochondrial genomes of the …

Background Ilex metabaptista is a woody tree species with strong waterlogging tolerance
and is also admired as a landscape plant with high development prospects and scientific …

Main conclusion In this study, we assembled the first complete mitochondrial genome of
Setaria italica and confirmed the multi-branched architecture. Abstract The foxtail millet …

Plant mitochondrial (mt) genomes possess several complex features, including a variable
size, a dynamic genome structure, and complicated patterns of gene loss and gain …
