This study examines the plastid genome of Rhopalocnemis phalloides, finding exceptionally high intraspecific polymorphism and identifying misclassified plastid genomes in NCBI databases.

Trans2express is a de novo transcriptome assembly pipeline that produces high-quality assemblies suitable for gene expression analysis in non-model plants.

This study reports the chromosome-scale genome of Heracleum sosnowskyi, revealing an unusually high number of genes without recent whole-genome duplications, and identifies genes involved in furanocoumarin biosynthesis.

Mabs optimizes parameters of genome assemblers to improve gene assembly accuracy, outperforming default settings in six eukaryotic genomes.

The paper compares the nuclear genomes of non-photosynthetic Balanophoraceae plants with their photosynthetic relatives, finding higher substitution rates and gene loss in Balanophoraceae.

This paper describes the sequenced plastid genome of the heterotrophic plant Rhopalocnemis phalloides, highlighting its extreme reduction and high AT content.

The paper compares transcriptomes of mycoheterotrophic plants to show lineage-specific genomic changes and substitution rates in nuclear genes related to photosynthesis.
