We determined the complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) of Ginkgo biloba (common name:
ginkgo), the only relict of ginkgophytes from the Triassic Period. The cpDNA molecule of …

Pinaceae, the largest family of conifers, has a diversified organization of chloroplast (cp)
genomes with two typical highly reduced inverted repeats (IRs). In the current study, we …

One of the more conspicuous features of plastid DNA (ptDNA) is its low guanine and
cytosine (GC) content. As of February 2009, all completely-sequenced plastid genomes …

Mahonia bealei (Berberidaceae) is a frequently-used traditional Chinese medicinal plant
with efficient anti-inflammatory ability. This plant is one of the sources of berberine, a new …

We used a unique combination of techniques to sequence the first complete chloroplast
genome of a lycophyte, Huperzia lucidula. This plant belongs to a significant clade …

We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome of the
leptosporangiate fern, Adiantum capillus-veneris L.(Pteridaceae). The circular genome is …

The complete nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome of sugarcane (Saccharum
officinarum) was determined. It consists of 141,182 base-pairs (bp), containing a pair of …

The amount of plastome sequence data available has soared in the last decade, but the
nature of plastome evolution during rapid radiations is largely unknown. Moreover, although …

Diospyros is the largest genus in Ebenaceae, comprising more than 500 species with
remarkable economic value, especially Diospyros kaki Thunb., which has traditionally been …

Background Performing chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) isolation is considered a major challenge
among different plant groups, especially conifers. Isolating chloroplasts in conifers by such …
