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 …

Evolutionary dynamics of the plastid inverted repeat: the effects of expansion, contraction, and loss on substitution rates
Rates of nucleotide substitution were previously shown to be several times slower in the
plastid inverted repeat (IR) compared with single‐copy (SC) regions, suggesting that the IR …
