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 …

Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich-repeat (NLR) genes comprise the largest family of plant
disease-resistance genes. Angiosperm NLR genes are phylogenetically divided into the …

The laurel family within the Magnoliids has attracted attentions owing to its scents, variable
inflorescences, and controversial phylogenetic position. Here, we present a chromosome …

Using DNA barcoding for species identification remains challenging for many plant groups.
New sequencing approaches such as complete plastid genome sequencing may provide …

Heterotrophic carbon acquisition is the most unusual lifestyle in plants, whereby the
heterotrophs obtain water, nutrients, and macromolecules from either another plant or a …

The family Lauraceae is a major component of tropical and subtropical forests worldwide,
and includes some commercially important timber trees and medicinal plants. However …

Resurrection plants, which are the" gifts" of natural evolution, are ideal models for studying
the genetic basis of plant desiccation tolerance. Here, we report a high-quality genome …

The Lauraceae is a family of the order Laurales, with 2500–3000 species comprising 50
genera, mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests. Up to …

The plastid genome (plastome) is highly conserved in both gene order and content and has
a lower mutation rate than the nuclear genome. However, the plastome is more variable in …

The genus Neocinnamomum is considered to be one of the most enigmatic groups in
Lauraceae, mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of Southeast Asia. The …
