Complete mitochondrial genome of the Small Salamander in Korea, Hynobius unisacculus (Anura: Hynobiidae).

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Hynobius unisacculus was sequenced and characterized. The circular mt genome constituted of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs) and a non-coding region (NCR). Phylogenetic analysis based on the full mt genome sequences confirmed that H. unisacculus was closely related to Hynobius leechii rather than other Hynobius species. This is the first completed mt genome from H. unisacculus, which provides data for further study of phylogeny in Hynobiidaes.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Hynobius dunni (Amphibia, Caudata, Hynobiidae) and its phylogenetic position.

Project description:Hynobius dunni is a salamander species of the genus Hynobius endemically distributed in eastern Kyushu in southwestern Japan. In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence and clarified the phylogenetic position of this species. The mitochondrial genome was 16,47 bp in length and encoded 13 protein, 2 ribosomal RNA, and 22 transfer RNA genes. Phylogenetic tree based on 13 protein-coding genes revealed that H. nebulosus were the most closely related species within the Hynobius species. The data identified in this study will be useful for population and conservation genetic studies of Hynobius species.

The complete mitochondrial genome information of Hynobius unisacculus (Amphibia, Caudata, Hynobiidae) and the phylogenetic implication.

Project description:Hynobius unisacculus is a hynobiid salamander species found only in a limited area at the southernmost part of the Korean Peninsula. Here, we characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of this species that was used to identify the phylogenetic relationship with other Hynobius species. The whole sequence was 16,411?bp and included 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. The gene arrangement was completely identical to those observed in other Hynobius species. Upon robust phylogenetic tree reconstructed based on 13 protein-coding genes, Hynobius species living on the Korean Peninsula showed close phylogenetic affinity; H. unisacculus and H. quelpaertensis formed a cluster that was the sister to the cluster of H. leechii and H. yangi.

Mitochondrial DNA data unveil highly divergent populations within the genus Hynobius (Caudata: Hynobiidae) in South Korea.

Project description:Korean salamanders of the genus Hynobius are currently classified into 3 species, H. leechii, H. quelpaertensis, and H. yangi. To investigate the phylogenetic relationship of these species, we analyzed the partial sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (907 bp) of 197 specimens from 43 regions in South Korea. Of these specimens, 93 were additionally examined with 12S rRNA (799 bp). Based on the partial sequence of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene and 12S rRNA, 89 and 36 haplotypes were defined, respectively, consisting of six subclades (H. leechii, H. quelpaertensis, H. yangi, HC1, HC2, and HC3). Among these subclades, the three subclades (HC1, HC2, and HC3) were clearly separated from the 3 previously reported species in the genus Hynobius. Pairwise sequence divergence between the six subclades ranged from 6.3 to 11.2% in cytochrome b gene and 2.0 to 4.3% in 12S rRNA. These results indicate there may be more divergent populations than the three currently described. Moreover, the estimation of divergence time revealed that the Hynobius species in South Korea diverged during the Miocene epoch, approximately 9 - 5 MYA. In addition, we confirmed the distribution of the three known species (H. leechii, H. quelpaertensis, and H. yangi) and determined the distributions of new, distinct groups (or subclades; HC1, HC1, and HC3). To more accurately establish the taxonomic status and population structure, further genetic, morphological, and ecological studies will be needed.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the American bullfrog in Korea, Lithobates catesbeianus (Anura: Ranidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Lithobates catesbeianus was sequenced and characterized. The circular mt genome was constituted of of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs) and a non-coding region (NCR). Phylogenetic analysis based on the full mt genome sequences confirmed that among the genus Lithobates, L. catesbeianus Korea is included in a monophyletic group with L. catesbeianus China, but not with either L. catesbeianus Japan or L. catesbeianus Canada. This is the first completed mt genome from L. catesbeianus Korea, which provide data for further study of phylogeny in Lithobates spp. that have been introduced into a number of different countries originally from North America.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Batrachuperus sp. 2 (Caudata: Hynobiidae).

Project description:We describe the mitochondrial genome sequence of a mountain salamander, Batrachuperus sp.2 (Hynobiidae). The mitogenome was extracted and assembled from a large genome by next-generation sequencing. The mitochondrial genome sequences were 16,394 bp in size with 37 genes including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a non-coding control region (D-loop). The overall base composition of Batrachuperus sp.2 is 34.1% for A, 19.3% for C, 13.5% for G, 33.1% for T, and 32.8% for GC content. The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on 13 protein-coding genes of Batrachuperus sp.2 and 6 closely related species by RAxML.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Dryophytes suweonensis (Anura Hylidae).

Project description:Dryophytes suweonensis is an endangered species with fragmented and declining populations from the Korean peninsula. We described 17,448 bp of D. suweonensis mtDNA, which had a shorter D-loop than other closely related species. The variation in nucleotide composition was similar to that of Hyla tsinlingensis but was larger than the one of its sister clade, D. japonicus.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Odorrana grahami (Anura: Ranidae).

Project description:The mitochondrial genome of the Disckless-fingered Odorous Frog, Odorrana grahami (Anura: Ranidae), was sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technology. The genome length was 17864 bp, including 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region (D-loop). The AT content of the mitochondrial genome was 55.9%. The composition of mitochondrial genome of O. grahami is similar to that of other species of the genus Odorrana. Phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial genomes of six congeners shows that O. grahami is sister to O. margaretae, but the analysis using 16S rRNA gene of additional congeners do not resolve their relationships.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Rana coreana (Anura: Ranidae).

Project description:Rana coreana is a brown frog species native to the Korean Peninsula. We characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of the species. The mitochondrial genome sequence of R. coreana is 22,262 bp and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and two control regions (CRs). The CR duplication and gene organization were identical to those observed in Rana kunyuensis and Rana amurensis. A total of 13 protein-coding genes were used to examine the phylogenetic relationships between this species and the genus Rana. R. coreana living on the Korean Peninsula, formed a cluster with R. kunyuensis and R. amurensis, with R. coreana showing the closest phylogenetic affinity for R. kunyuensis.
