In this comprehensive review, we explore the significant role that nanopore sequencing technology plays in study of plant organellar genomes, particularly mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA. To date, application has led to successful over 100 genomes around 80 genomes. These figures not only demonstrate technology’s robustness but also mark a substantial advancement field, highlighting its efficacy decoding complex dynamic nature these Nanopore sequencing, known for long-read capabilities, significantly surpasses traditional techniques, especially addressing challenges like structural complexity sequence repetitiveness This review delves into nuances elaborating on benefits compared conventional methods groundbreaking applications it fostered genomics. While transformative impact is clear, limitations, including error rates computational requirements, are discussed, alongside potential solutions prospects technological refinement.

The liverwort Arnellia fennica has a circumarctic distribution with disjunct and scarce localities in the Alps, Carpathians, Pyrenees. Within it is only known from Tatra Mountains (in Poland), where so far four occurrences have been documented forest belt of limestone part Western Tatras. species considered tertiary relict, which owes its survival during last glaciation period to low-lying locations areas not covered by ice. Previously, demonstrated that this plant does produce gemmae Mountains, nor reproduce sexually, hence spread massif despite high availability potential habitats. These studies address following questions: (1) why A. fennica, an arctic-alpine species, found at low elevations far, (2) what were possibilities as verified based on latest paleoglaciological map, (3) how persists Tatras remains rare plant. As result, nine additional new found, bringing total 13 throughout massif. Some sites mountain area. For first time, production population was observed documented, along presence male specimens dioecious species. Genetic shown individuals all three groups are genetically homogeneous, indicating lack sexual reproduction. way dispersal for through propagule production. uniqueness specificity these structures described, differ significantly common model liverworts. rarity attributed inefficient mode vegetative reproduction absence Paleoglaciological analysis montane (historical new) showed half located glaciers. hypothesis liverwort's period, lower elevations, should be rejected. In light data obtained, secondary, could arisen after glacier retreated high-mountain populations producing propagules transported downhill.
