Abstract:BackgroundBurseratrees are conspicuous elements of the tropical dry forests in the Neotropics, which have a signi cant cultural value due to their fragrant resins (incense), wood sources (handcrafts), and ecological bene ts. Despite its relevance, genetic resources developed for the genus are scarce.
Methods and resultsWe sequenced and analyzed the complete chloroplast genome structure and functional annotation of three Bursera species of the Bullockia section: Bursera cuneata, B. palmeri, and B. bipinnata. Th… Show more
