Abstract excerpt
To elucidate the evolution of mitochondrial genomic diversity within a single order of angiosperms, we sequenced seven Brassicales genomes and the transcriptome of Brassica oleracea. In the common ancestor of Brassicaceae, several genes of known function were lost and the ccmFN gene was split into two independent genes, which also coincides with a trend of genome reduction towards the smallest sequenced...
