The first complete mitochondrial genome of Murex from Murex trapa (Neogastropoda: Muricidae).


ABSTRACT: The rare-spined murex (Murex trapa) is an ecologically and economically important species of Muricidae, which comprises a highly diverse group of predatory marine snails. However, the taxonomic classification and phylogenetic studies have so far been limited. In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of Murex from M. trapa. The mitogenome has 15,408?bp (66.3% A?+?T content) and made up of total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs), and a control region. This study provided the first complete mitogenome of Murex and will provide useful genetic information for future phylogenetic and taxonomic classification of Muricidae.

However, the taxonomic classification and phylogenetic studies have so far been limited. In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of <i>Murex</i> from <i>M. trapa</i>. The mitogenome has 15,408 bp (66.3% A + T content) and made up of total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ri  ...[more]
