Comparative plastomics of Amaryllidaceae: inverted repeat expansion and the degradation of the ndh genes in Strumaria truncata Jacq.

Amaryllidaceae is a widespread and distinctive plant family contributing both food and ornamental plants. Here we present an initial survey of plastomes across the family and report on both structural rearrangements and gene losses. Most plastomes in the family are of similar gene arrangement and co...

Strumaria truncata shows a substantial loss of ndh family genes while three other taxa show loss of cemA, which has been reported only rarely.
