Super-large record-breaking mitochondrial genome of Cathaya argyrophylla in Pinaceae
Massive Pinaceae mitogenomes are characterized by a combination of features: substantial repeat content, elevated transposon activity, extensive plastid sequence integration, and distinct RNA editing and nuclear homology patterns. This comprehensive analysis enhances our understanding of plant mitogenome evolution and provides a genomic foundation for <i>C. argyrophylla</i> conservation and potential applications.
