Coryloideae is a subfamily in the family Betulaceae consisting of four extant genera: , , , and . We sequenced the plastomes of six species of and one species of for comparative and phylogenetic analyses. The plastomes are 159-160 kb long and possess typical quadripartite cp architecture. The plastomes show moderate divergence and conserved arrangement. Five mutational hotspots were identified by comparing the plastomes of seven species of Coryloideae: , , , , and . We assembled the most complete phylogenomic tree for the family Betulaceae using 68 plastomes. Our cp genomic sequence phylogenetic analyses placed , , and in a clade together and left in a separate clade. Within the genus , these analyses indicate the existence of five subclades reflecting the phylogeographical relationships among the species. The data offer significant genetic information for the identification of species of the Coryloideae, taxonomic and phylogenetic studies, and molecular breeding.

Background: Betulaceae is a relatively small but morphologically diverse family, with many species having important economic and ecological values. Although plastome structure of Betulaceae has been reported sporadically, a comprehensive exploration for plastome evolution is still lacking. Besides, previous phylogenies had been constructed based on limited gene fragments, generating unrobust phylogenetic framework and hindering further studies on divergence ages, biogeography and character evolution.

Betulaceae, the birch family, comprises six living genera and over 160 species, many of which are economically valuable. To deepen our knowledge of Betulaceae species, we have sequenced the genome of a hornbeam, Carpinus fangiana, which belongs to the most species-rich genus of the Betulaceae subfamily Coryloideae. Based on over 75 Gb (~200x) of high-quality next-generation sequencing data, we assembled a 386.

Background: Previous phylogenetic conclusions on the family Betulaceae were based on either morphological characters or traditional single loci, which may indicate some limitations. The chloroplast genome contains rich polymorphism information, which is very suitable for phylogenetic studies. Thus, we sequenced the chloroplast genome sequences of three Betulaceae species and performed multiple analyses to investigate the genome variation, resolve the phylogenetic relationships, and clarify the divergence history.
