Comparative plastid genomics of five Ormosia species (fabaceae): insights into structural variation and morphological homoplasy

Aug 2026 · Plant Systematics and Evolution · Vol 312 · 0 citations · 78 references

TL;DR

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.

Comparative plastome analysis and plastomic phylogeny of Moraceae with expanded species-level sampling.

Phylogenetic reconstruction based on complete plastome sequences strongly supported the monophyly of all seven recognized tribes of Moraceae, recovered the non-monophyly of Streblus, and placed Maclura within Chlorophoreae, consistent with recent nuclear and plastid phylogenomic frameworks.

Comparative plastome analyses of Lewinskya (Orthotrichaceae): insights into genome structure, molecular evolution, and phylogenetic relationships.

The newly assembled Lewinskya plastomes expand genomic resources for Orthotrichaceae and show that chloroplast genome evolution in the sampled species is structurally conservative but contains informative localized variation.
