Next-generation sequencing yields a nearly complete mitochondrial genome of Plestiodon liui (Reptilia, Squamata, Scincidae) endemic to China.

ABSTRACT: The Liu's skink, Plestiodon liui, is endemic to China. In this study, a nearly complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) (17,643 bp in length) of P. liui from Junzhang Mountain, Wuxi, Jiangsu province, China, was determined by next-generation sequencing. Similar to the typical mtDNA of vertebrates, it contained two ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, and one control region (CR). With exception to the CR, all of the 37 genes were completely recovered. The PCGs were used to perform Bayesian phylogenetic analyses together with other scincid lizards with mitogenome data in GenBank. The resulting phylogenetic tree supported the monophyly of the P. capito group, and suggested that P. liui is the sister taxon to P. capito plus P. tunganus. The mitogenome of P. liui will provide fundamental data for the exploration of the mitogenome evolution in skinks.

Next-generation sequencing yields the complete mitogenome of the Shaw's sea-snake (Squamata: Elapidae).

Project description:We report the complete mitogenome of Hydrophis curtus, which is 17,702?bp in size and includes 13 protein-coding (PCGs), two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and two control regions. PCGs, with 13 genes, are 11,261?bp in length. All PCGs use as the start codon ATN except ND1 (CTA) and COX1 (GTG); ATP8, ATP6, ND4L, ND5, and Cytb use the typical stop codon TAA; but COX2 and ND4 with a single T-. Phylogeny recon-structed using the Bayesian inference (BI) method with 13 PCGs indicates that H. curtus at the root of Laticaudinae.

Project description:We report the complete mitogenome of Hydrophis cyanocinctus, which is 17,750 bp in size and includes 13 protein-coding (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 control regions. PCGs, with 13 genes, is 11,427 bp in length. All PCGs use ATN as the typical start codon except COX1 with GTG; the TAG was found as the stop codon in ND1 and ND2, the AGA was found as the stop codon in COI and ND6, the TAA was found as the stop codon in ATP8, ATP6, ND4L, ND5 and Cytb; while other 3 PCGs stop with a single T.

Next-generation sequencing yields the complete mitochondrial genome of the endangered Milos viper Macrovipera schweizeri (Reptilia, Viperidae).

Project description:The Milos viper, Macrovipera schweizeri, is an endangered viperid snake found on four Aegean islands (Greece). Its complete mitochondrial genome, the first reported for the genus Macrovipera, was assembled through next-generation sequencing. Its total length is 17,152?bp and includes 22 tRNAs, two ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes and two control regions, showing the typical gene-arrangement for Viperidae. Eight tRNAs and ND3 are encoded on the light strand, while all other genes are encoded on the heavy strand. A mitogenomic phylogeny that included Macrovipera schweizeri and 13 other viperid genera returned an unresolved relationship among the genera Macrovipera, Daboia and Vipera.

Next-generation sequencing yields the complete mitochondrial genome of the Shangrila hot-spring snakes (Thermophis shangrila; Reptilia: Colubridae).

Project description:In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Thermophis shangrila by using the next-generation sequencing technique. The total length of the mitogenome was 17,407 bp, which was composed of 13 protein coding genes, two rRNA genes (12s and 16s rRNA), 22 tRNA genes, and two control regions (CRI and CRII). The base composition was 32.6% for A, 23.9% for T, 30.0% for C, and 13.5% for G. We added a fragment about 150 bp in length at control region I, which Peng et al. failed to obtain using Sanger dideoxy sequencing.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Scincella modesta (Squamata: Scincidae).

Project description:The first complete mitochondrial genome sequence was determined for an oviparous lizard, Scincella modesta (Scincella, Scincidae). The total length of the complete mitochondrial genome was 17,511 bp, encodes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions. The overall base composition of S. modesta is A: 31.9%, T: 27.2%, G: 14.5%, and C: 26.5%. Most of the S. modesta mitochondrial genes are encoded on the H-strand except for the ND6 gene and eight tRNA genes, which are encoded on the L-strand. Mrbayes and ML tree based on 13 protein-coding genes indicated that S. vandenburghi is the sister group of the S. modesta within the genus Scincella. The complete mitogenome sequence of S. modesta provided fundamental data for resolving phylogenetic and genetic problems related to genus Scincella.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Sphenomorphus indicus (Reptilia: Scincidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Sphenomorphus indicus was sequenced and characterized by next-generation sequencing technology. The total length of mitogenome is 17,027?bp and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosome RNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions (the control region and the putative L-strand replication origin). Most of the genes of S. indicus are encoded on the H-strand, except for the ND6 subunit gene and 8 tRNA genes which is distributed on the L-strand. Phylogenetic reconstruction suggested that S. indicus is the sister group of the S. incognitus within the genus Sphenomorphus. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence presented here will be useful to study the evolutionary relationships and genetic diversity of S. indicus.
