Evolutionary and phylogenetic analyses of 11 species based on the complete chloroplast genome.

The subgenus , one of the most important groups in the genus , comprises over 100 species; however, the taxonomic classification and phylogenetic relationships of remain controversial. Therefore, it is necessary to reconstruct the phylogenetic tree for known species. Here, we report the chloroplast (cp) genome sequences of 11 species to provide insight into evolution of the plastome.

Comparative transcriptome and metabolome analyses of cherry leaves spot disease caused by .

is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen with a broad host range that causes widespread and devastating disease in sweet cherry (). We selected a resistant cultivar (RC) and a susceptible cultivar (SC) of cherry and used a combined physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic approach to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the plant's resistance to , of which little is known. We found that infection stimulated the outbreak of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cherry.
