Background Plastid genomes (plastomes) have long been recognized as highly conserved
in their overall structure, size, gene arrangement and content among land plants. However …

Dragon fruits are tropical fruits economically important for agricultural industries. As
members of the family of Cactaceae, they have evolved to adapt to the arid environment …

With c. 2,000 species, Euphorbia is one of the largest angiosperm genera, yet a lack of
chloroplast genome (plastome) resources impedes a better understanding of its evolution. In …

Abstract Background The cactus family (Cactaceae) has been reported to have evolved a
minimal photosynthetic plastome size, with the loss of inverted-repeat (IR) regions and NDH …

Premise The Caribbean islands are in the top five biodiversity hotspots on the planet;
however, the biogeographic history of the seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) there is …

The genus Alchemilla L., known for its medicinal and ornamental value, is widely distributed
in the Holarctic regions with a few species found in Asia and Africa. Delimitation of species …

Medicago is a genus of legumes (Fabaceae) that resemble common clovers with pinnately
trifoliate leaves and spirally coiled seed pods, and Medicago sativa is a famous forage crop …

In this study of evolutionary relationships in the subfamily Rubioideae (Rubiaceae), we take
advantage of the off-target proportion of reads generated via previous target capture …
