Abstract:With its nearly 200 species, the
Mammillaria
genus is the most species-rich within the Cactaceae family, yet surprisingly, few of its chloroplast genomes have been studied. We focused on the species
Mammillaria elongata
DC. 1828, a petite cactus native to Mexico and favored by horticulturists, yet whose phylogenetic relationships remain uncertain due to a lack of genomic data. We extracted the DNA from a sample obtained in China, sequenced it using the NovaSeq 6000… Show more
