Chloroplast sequence data are widely used to infer phylogenies of plants and algae. With
the increasing availability of complete chloroplast genome sequences, the opportunity …

Abstract Background Oat (Avena sativa L.) is a recognized health-food, and the contributions
of its different candidate A-genome progenitor species remain inconclusive. Here, we report …

Background Camellia, comprising more than 200 species, is a valuable economic
commodity due to its enormously popular commercial products: tea leaves, flowers, and high …

We investigated the complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of non-model Arabidopsis halleri
ssp. gemmifera and Arabidopsis lyrata ssp. petraea using Illumina paired-end sequencing to …

Determining the phylogenetic relationships among the major lines of angiosperms is a long-
standing problem, yet the uncertainty as to the phylogenetic affinity of these lines persists …

The family Passifloraceae consists of some 700 species classified in around 16 genera.
Almost all its members belong to the genus Passiflora. In Brazil, the yellow passion fruit …

Chloroplast genomes (cp genomes) are widely used in comparative genomics, population
genetics, and phylogenetic studies. Obtaining chloroplast genomes from RNA-Seq data …

Since chloroplasts are maternally inherited and have unique features in evolution, their
genome sequences have been broadly used in phylogenetic studies of plants. Here, we …

Background Chloroplast is an essential organelle in plants which contains independent
genome. Chloroplast genomes have been widely used for plant phylogenetic inference …

Background Camellia is an economically and phylogenetically important genus in the family
Theaceae. Owing to numerous hybridization and polyploidization, it is taxonomically and …
