Mitochondria are the powerhouses of eukaryotic cells, responsible for ATP generation and
playing a role in a diversity of cellular and organismal functions. Different from the majority of …

Ever since its discovery, the double-stranded DNA contained in the mitochondria of
eukaryotes has fascinated researchers because of its bacterial endosymbiotic origin, crucial …

GetOrganelle is a state-of-the-art toolkit to accurately assemble organelle genomes from
whole genome sequencing data. It recruits organelle-associated reads using a modified …

Background: Chloroplast genes and genomes are the most important genomic data for plant
phylogeny and DNA barcoding. Since the rapid development of high throughput sequencing …

Compared to multicellular fungi and unicellular yeasts, unicellular fungi with free-living
flagellated stages (zoospores) remain poorly known and their phylogenetic position is often …

For 30 years, it has been clear that angiosperm mitochondrial genomes evolve rapidly in
sequence arrangement (ie, synteny), yet absolute rates of rearrangement have not been …

Fungal mitochondrial (mt) genomes exhibit great diversity in size which is partially attributed
to their variable intergenic regions and most importantly to the inclusion of introns within …

In the present study, eleven novel complete mitogenomes of Boletus were assembled and
compared. The eleven complete mitogenomes were all composed of circular DNA …

Intracellular parasitism often results in gene loss, genome reduction, and dependence upon
the host for cellular functioning. Rozellomycota is a clade comprising many such parasites …

Apiotrichum is a diverse anamorphic basidiomycetous yeast genus, and its mitogenome
characterization has not been revealed. In this study, we assembled two Apiotrichum …
