Plastids and mitochondria are the only organelles that possess genomes of endosymbiotic
origin. In recent decades, advances in sequencing technologies have contributed to a …

Since the endosymbiont origin from α‐Proteobacteria, mitochondrial genomes have
undergone extremely divergent evolutionary trajectories among eukaryotic lineages …

Abstract Background PacBio high fidelity (HiFi) sequencing reads are both long (15–20 kb)
and highly accurate (> Q20). Because of these properties, they have revolutionised genome …

Understanding the complexity of genomic structures and their unique architecture is linked
with the power of visualization tools used to represent these features. Such tools should be …

Background Suaeda glauca (S. glauca) is a halophyte widely distributed in saline and sandy
beaches, with strong saline-alkali tolerance. It is also admired as a landscape plant with …

Background Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) can be structurally complex while
their size can vary from~ 222 Kbp in Brassica napus to 11.3 Mbp in Silene conica. To date …

The mitochondrion stands at the center of cell energy metabolism. It contains its own
genome, the mtDNA, that is a relic of its prokaryotic symbiotic ancestor. In plants, the …

Main conclusion We assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of Scutellaria
tsinyunensis in this study. Repeat-mediated recombination resulted in the formation of two …

Abstract Background Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an important clonally propagated food
crop in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Genetic gain by molecular breeding has …

Unlike the typical single circular structure of most animal mitochondrial genomes
(mitogenome), the drastic structural variation of plant mitogenomes is a result of a mixture of …
