Abstract

The sequencing of complete chloroplast genome of Marchantia polymorpha paved the way to know the structure and organization of chloroplast genomes of other plants. Since then ~747 chloroplast genomes have been sequenced. However, in comparison to the tracheophytes, a small number of complete chloroplast genome sequences of bryophytes are available (only 4 liverworts, 6 mosses and 2 hornwort). This review represents an update on sequenced chloroplast genomes of bryophytes.
