Green giant—a tiny chloroplast genome with mighty power to produce high‐value proteins: history and phylogeny
Free‐living cyanobacteria were entrapped by eukaryotic cells~ 2 billion years ago, ultimately
giving rise to chloroplasts. After a century of debate, the presence of chloroplast DNA was …

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 …
