Structural diversity among plastid genomes of land plants
JP Mower, TL Vickrey - Advances in botanical research, 2018 - Elsevier
The plastome of land plants is often considered to be highly conserved in sequence,
structure, and content. This is particularly true for nonvascular land plants, for which few …
