Assembly and comparative analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) revealing repeat-mediated recombination and gene transfer.

Background: Red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is a renowned fruit plant with significant medicinal value. Its nuclear genome and chloroplast genome (plastome) have been reported, while there is a lack of genetic information on its mitogenome.

Comparative Analyses of the Complete Mitogenomes of Two Species (Polygonaceae) Provide Insights into Understanding the Mitogenome Evolution Within the Family.

(Polygonaceae) is a small genus only comprising two species, and . Both species have well-documented usage in Chinese herbal medicine. We sequenced and assembled the complete mitogenomes of these two species and conducted a comparative analysis of the mitogenomes within Polygonaceae.
