Comparative genomic study on the complete plastomes of four officinal Ardisia species in China

Abstract Ardisia Sw. (Primulaceae) is naturally distributed in tropical and subtropical areas. Most of them possess edible and medicinal values and are popular in clinical and daily use in China. However, ambiguous species delineation and genetic information limit the development and utilization of...
