The protocol we report here is based on biolistic delivery of transforming DNA to tobacco leaves, selection of transplastomic clones by spectinomycin or kanamycin resistance and regeneration of plants with uniformly transformed plastid genomes. Because the plastid genome of Nicotiana tabacum derives from Nicotiana sylvestris, and the two genomes are highly conserved, vectors developed for N. tabacum can be used in N. sylvestris. The tissue culture responses of N. tabacum cv. Petit Havana and N. sylvestris accession TW137 are similar. Plastid transformation in a subset of N. tabacum cultivars and in Nicotiana benthamiana requires adjustment of the tissue culture protocol. We describe updated vectors targeting insertions in the unique and repeated regions of the plastid genome, vectors suitable for regulated gene expression by the engineered PPR10 RNA binding protein as well as systems for marker gene excision.

is a cosmopolitan aquatic plant genus that includes species with widespread global distributions. In previous studies, a revised molecular phylogeny was inferred using seven plastid loci from nine species across different geographic regions. By utilizing complete organellar genomes, we aim to provide a more comprehensive dataset that offers a robust phylogenetic signal for resolving species evolutionary relationships.

Background: The genus Impatiens, which includes both annual and perennial herbs, holds considerable ornamental, economic, and medicinal value. However, it posed significant challenges for taxonomic and systematic reconstruction. This was largely attributed to its high intraspecific diversity and low interspecific variation in morphological characteristics.

Background: Pueraria is an edible and medicinal raw material, which is of great value to the pharmaceutical and food industries. Nonetheless, due to morphological diversity and complex domestication history, the classification of Pueraria plants is ambiguous. As the varieties on the market are mixed, the species are difficult to distinguish, and their morphological characteristics are similar to the physical and chemical properties.

Background: Numerous species of Ardisia are widely used for their medicinal and ornamental values in China. However, accurately identifying Ardisia species at the molecular level remains a challenge due to the morphological similarities among different species, the complexity of interspecific variation, and the limited availability of genetic markers. In this study, we reported 20 chloroplast genomes of Ardisia species from China and combined them with 8 previously published chloroplast genomes to conduct a comprehensive analysis for phylogenetic relationships and adaptive evolution.

Background: Plastids are usually involved in photosynthesis, but the secondary loss of this function is a widespread phenomenon in various lineages of algae and plants. In addition to the loss of genes associated with photosynthesis, the plastid genomes of colorless algae are frequently reduced further. To understand the pathways of reductive evolution associated with the loss of photosynthesis, it is necessary to study a number of closely related strains.
