Comparative and Evolutionary Analyses on the Complete Plastomes of Five Kalanchoe Horticultural Plants

Many species of the genus Kalanchoe are important horticultural plants. They have evolved the Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthetic pathway to allow them to be better adapted to dry environments. Despite their importance, it is still debating whether Kalanchoe is monophyletic, and unders...
