Mitochondria, inherited maternally, are energy metabolism organelles that generate most of
the chemical energy needed to power cellular various biochemical reactions. Deciphering …

Genomics research of Populus deltoides, an important timber species that is widely planted
worldwide, is an important part of poplar breeding. Currently, the nuclear and chloroplast …

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 …

Plant mitochondrial genomes vary widely in size. Although many plant mitochondrial
genomes have been sequenced and assembled, the vast majority are of angiosperms, and …

Orchidaceae is one of the largest families of angiosperms. Considering the large number of
species in this family and its symbiotic relationship with fungi, Orchidaceae provide an ideal …

Background Gymnosperms represent five of the six lineages of seed plants. However, most
sequenced plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) have been generated for …

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 …

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

Background Spirodela polyrhiza is a species of the order Alismatales, which represent the
basal lineage of monocots with more ancestral features than the Poales. Its complete …

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