Chloroplast genome map of common bermudagrass.
Genes shown on the outside of the large circle are transcribed clockwise, while genes shown on the inside are transcribed counterclockwise. The small circle indicates IRs. Genes with intron are marked with “*”. Pseudogenes are marked with “Ψ”.
Fig 2.
Simple evolutionary model for LSC rearrangements of the Poaceae.
Ancestral chloroplast genome of the Poaceae (Typha-like) first underwent a major inversion (hypothetical Intermediate I) and then a small inversion (hypothetical Intermediate II).

Comparison of IR boundaries among seven grass species.
Numbers in red denote distance between border genes (rpl22, rps19, rps15, ndhF, and ndhH) and junctions of LSC/SSC and IRs. Numbers in blue denote invasion of SSC border genes (ndhF, ndhH and Ψ ndhH) to the IRs.

Phylogenetic tree of the Poaceae.
Numbers above/below the branches are bootstrap value (only values higher than 50% are shown). Black circle denotes rearrangement events, white square denotes gene loss/pseudogenization and intron loss, and black square denotes gene duplication.
