Michael Moore, Professor of Biology, has co-authored an article in Australian Systematic Botany, CSIRO Publishing:

Assembly and comparative analyses of the mitochondrial genome of Castanospermum australe (Papilionoideae, Leguminosae). 
Authors:  Zhang, Rong; Jin, Jian-Jun; Moore, Michael J.; Yi, Ting-Shuang.

The Chinese collaborators are all affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Science, Kunming Institute of Botany, Germplasm Bank Wild Species, Kunming, Yunnan, Peoples R China.  Zhang is also affiliated with University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, Peoples R China.

From the abstract: "Plant mitochondrial genomes are often difficult to assemble because of frequent recombination mediated by repeats. Only a few mitochondrial genomes have been characterised in subfamily Papilionoideae of Leguminosae. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of Castanospermum australe A.Cunn. & C.Fraser, an important medicinal and ornamental species in the Aldinoid clade of Papilionoideae."
