Unraveling the mitochondrial genome of Quercus litseoides: a step towards conservation of an endangered species
This work fills a critical gap in mitochondrial genomic resources for <i>Quercus</i> section <i>Cyclobalanopsis</i>, and provides new insights into the structural diversity and evolutionary dynamics. It also establishes a valuable genomic foundation for phylogenetic reconstruction, adaptive evolution research, and the conservation of endangered <i>Quercus</i> species.
