The complete mitochondrial genome of Zamia integrifolia uncovers distinct patterns of genomic turnover and repeat expansion in Zamiaceae
Introduction Gymnosperm mitochondrial genomes exhibit substantial variation in size and structure, yet the evolutionary dynamics of Cycadales remain insufficiently explored beyond the genus Cycas. Methods We assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of Zamia integrifolia using Oxford Nanopore long-read and MGI short-...
