Author(s): Guo Liangliang, Shi Yisu, Wu Mengmeng, Michael Ackah, Qiang Lin and Weiguo Zhao*
Background: Mulberry is an economically significant crop, tolerance to various environmental conditions. The plant (leaves) is use for feeding silkworm and, for its landscaping and possesses high development prospects and scientific research value. Mitochondria are the plants' powerhouse that produces the required energy to carry out life processes.
Objective: Plant mitochondria (mt) genome serves as a powerhouse that produces the required energy to carry out life processes in plants. However, the mitochondria (mt) genome of mulberry plant is still unexplored. This study investigated the mt genome of Morus L (M. atropurpurea and M. multicaulis) and compared it to other plant species.
Methods: The mt genome of Morus L (M. atropurpurea and M. multicaulis) were.. View more»
