The Leguminosae has emerged as a model for studying angiosperm plastome evolution because of its striking diversity of structural rearrangements and sequence variation. However, most of what is known about legume plastomes comes from few genera representing a subset of lineages in subfamily Papilionoideae. We investigate plastome evolution in subfamily...

Despite knowledge that concerted evolution of high-copy loci is often imperfect,
studies that investigate the extent of intragenomic polymorphisms and comparisons
across a large number of species are rarely made. We present a bioinformatic pipeline
for characterizing polymorphisms within an individual among copies of a high-copy
locus. Results are presented...

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of DNA from the plastid to the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes of higher plants is a common
phenomenon; however, plastid genomes (plastomes) are highly conserved and have generally been regarded as impervious to HGT.
We sequenced the 158 kb plastome and the 690 kb mitochondrial genome...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Hyb-Seq, the combination of target enrichment and genome skimming
allows simultaneous data collection for low-copy nuclear genes and high-copy genomic targets
for plant systematics and evolution studies.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Genome and transcriptome assemblies for milkweed (Asclepias syriaca)
were utilized to design enrichment probes for 3385...
