Article Synopsis
- * A study sequenced 15 new plastomes from Passiflora to analyze phylogenetic relationships, and the findings aligned with previous research, highlighting multiple gene losses and structural changes.
- * Notably, subgenus Decaloba exhibited significant genomic rearrangements, including the expansion of inverted repeats, while certain genes showed accelerated rates of nucleotide substitution across different lineages.
Passiflora kwangtungensis is a critically endangered Chinese species known from Guangxi, Guangdong, and Jiangxi Provinces. The species belongs to Passiflora subgenus Decaloba, supersection Disemma, section Octandranthus. Field observations decreased rapidly during the 1970s to 1980s, and it was suspected that this species might have been extirpated due to repeated deforestation events throughout southern China.
