The complete chloroplast genome sequence of valuable ornamental tree, L. (Theaceae), was determined. The genome size was 156,971 bp in length, containing a pair of 25,798 bp inverted repeat (IR) regions, which were separated by small and large single copy regions (SSC and LSC) of 18,394 and 86,673 bp, respectively. The cp genome contained 134 genes, including 91 coding genes, six rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. The overall GC content of the chloroplast genome was 37.3%. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the position of being sister to the clade containing and (subgenus ).

Linnaeus 1753 is a herbaceous perennial medicinal plant of the family Scrophulariaceae, native throughout eastern and central North America. In this study, the first complete chloroplast genome of was reported and phylogenetic analysis was conducted with other 11 species from Scrophulariaceae. The chloroplast genome was 152,414 bp with 132 genes and includes a large single-copy (LSC) region (83,583 bp), a small single-copy (SSC) region (17,925 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat (IRs) regions (25,453 bp).

Plant mitochondrial genomes are characterized by their complex compositions and structures, large genomes, rapid recombination and evolution rates, and frequent intracellular gene transfer events. Centipedegrass, known as "Chinese turfgrass", is a warm-season turfgrass that exhibits excellent tolerance to both biotic and abiotic stresses. The chloroplast genome, with 139,107 bp, and the mitochondrial genome, with 564,432 bp, were both assembled into a single circular structure.

GOLDEN2-LIKEs (GLKs) are important transcription factors for the chloroplast development influencing photosynthesis, nutrition, senescence, and stress response in plants. Sunflower () is a highly photosynthetic plant; here, a -homologues gene was identified from the sunflower genome by bioinformatics. To analyze the bio-function of , transgenic rice plants overexpressing () were constructed and characterized via phenotype.
