Magnoliids are a strongly supported clade of angiosperms. Previous phylogenetic studies based primarily on analyses limited number mostly plastid markers have led to the current classification magnoliids into four orders and 18 families. However, uncertainty remains regarding placement several For first comprehensive phylogenomic analysis as whole, we sampled 235 species from 199 (74%) genera representing all families most subfamilies tribes. We analyzed newly generated data Angiosperms353 probe set using both coalescent concatenation testing impact multiple filtering alignment strategies.

Neocinnamomum plants are considered a promising feedstock for biodiesel in China, due to the richness long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) found their seeds. However, mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of this genus has not yet been systematically described, and exploration species relationships within using mitogenome sequences is also an uncharted territory. This hindered our understanding diversity evolutionary Neocinnamomum. In study, total 24 individuals representing seven distinct taxa from were subjected Illumina sequencing, N. delavayi was sequenced Oxford Nanopore sequencing technology. We successfully assembled delavayi, which 778,066 bp size exhibits single circular structure. The analysis identified 659 dispersed repeats, 211 simple sequence repeats (SSRs), 30 tandem mitogenome.
