Comparative plastid genomics of five Ormosia species (fabaceae): insights into structural variation and morphological homoplasy
The results indicate that while the Ormosia plastomes retain the typical angiosperm quadripartite structure, they show a substantial expansion of the inverted repeat (IR) regions compared to the sister lineage of core genistoids (represented by Lupinus and Sophora), with the boundaries extending to the clpP gene.
