Macropsinae are forest pests that feed on woody plants. They can damage the growth of
trees and crops, and some species can also spread plant pathogens. Due to their …

The mitochondrial genome of Liriodendron tulipifera exhibits many ancestral angiosperm
features and a remarkably slow evolutionary rate, while mitochondrial genomes of other …

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

In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of Michelia chartacea BL Chen & SC Yang
was 160,138 bp in length. It includes a large single-copy (LSC) region of 88,164 bp, a small …

Background Bupleurum chinense (B. chinense) is a plant that is widely distributed globally
and has strong pharmacological effects. Though the chloroplast (cp) genome of B. chinense …

Salix L.(willows) is one of the most taxonomically complex genera of flowering plants,
including shrubs, tall trees, bushes, and prostrate plants. Despite the high species diversity …

Background The complex physical structure and abundant repeat sequences make it difficult
to assemble the mitogenomes of seed plants, especially gymnosperms. Only approximately …

There are three distinct genetic systems in higher plants, the dominant nuclear genome and
the semi-autonomous organelle genomes (plastids and mitochondria). In contrast to the …

Camellia gigantocarpa is one of the oil-tea trees whose seeds can be used to extract high-
quality vegetable oil. To date, there are no data on the mitochondrial genome of the oil-tea …

Background Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) can be structurally complex while
their size can vary from~ 222 Kbp in Brassica napus to 11.3 Mbp in Silene conica. To date …
