The complete mitochondrial genome of a mangrove associated plant: Sesuvium portulacastrum and its phylogenetic implications.

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome of mangrove associated plant: Sesuvium portulacastrum was analyzed in this paper, which is the first for the genus within the family Aizoaceae. The mitogenome sequence is 392,221 bp in length containing six ribosomal RNA genes, 27 transfer RNA genes, and 36 protein-coding genes. Gene nad1, nad2 and nad5 are the trans-splicing genes. One intron is found in gene ccmFc, two introns are found in genes nad4 and rps3, and four introns are found in gene nad7. Phylogenetic analysis using the maximum likelihood method positioned S. portulacastrum within the monophyletic clades of the family Aizoaceae.
