Conserved gene order and expanded inverted repeats characterize plastid genomes of Thalassiosirales.

Conserved gene order and expanded inverted repeats characterize plastid genomes of Thalassiosirales.

Diatoms are mostly photosynthetic eukaryotes within the heterokont lineage. Variable plastid genome sizes and extensive genome rearrangements have been observed across the diatom phylogeny, but little is known about plastid genome evolution within order- or family-level clades. The Thalassiosirales...
