Here, we present new data for three chloroplast genomes of the freshwater charophytes Klebsormidium flaccidum (Klebsormidiophyceae), Mesotaenium endlicherianum (Zygnematophyceae), and Roya anglica (Zygnematophyceae).engCharophytesBryophytesChloroplast genomicsLand plantsjournal article2014-10-24http://dx.doi.org/:10.1093/gbe/evu061
