Genomic comparison of non-photosynthetic plants from the family Balanophoraceae with their photosynthetic relatives
The plant family Balanophoraceae consists entirely of species that have lost the ability to photosynthesize. Instead, they obtain nutrients by parasitizing other plants. Recent studies have revealed that plastid genomes of Balanophoraceae exhibit a number of interesting features, one of the most pro...
