Genomic insights into the clonal reproductive Opuntia cochenillifera: mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes of the cochineal cactus for enhanced understanding of structural dynamics and evolutionary implications

BackgroundThe cochineal cactus (Opuntia cochenillifera), notable for its substantial agricultural and industrial applications, predominantly undergoes clonal reproduction, which presents significant challenges in breeding and germplasm innovation. Recent developments in mitochondrial genome engineer...
