Abstract:Low-coverage sequencing in plants allows whole plastomes to be obtained that can be used to investigate phylogenetic relationships among groups. The genus Orchis (c. 20 species), is usually divided into Orchis subgenera Orchis and Masculae. These subgenera are composed of three (Anthropophorae, Italicae, and Orchis) and four (Masculae, Provinciales, Pusillae, and Robustocalcare) sections, respectively. In this study, we used genome-skimming data to assemble the plastid genomes of 11 species (15 accessions) of … Show more
