Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Current research on the Styracaceae family is limited by the number of sampled genera and species, and the comparative analysis of their chloroplast genomes, as well as phylogenetic studies, are quite restricted. RESULTS: This study conducted a comprehensive comparative analysis of the chloroplast genomes of the Styracaceae family, covering 52 species from 12 genera. Genomic variations occurred mainly...
