The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic position of the leopard catshark, Poroderma pantherinum.

ABSTRACT: We present the first mitochondrial genome of a South African endemic catshark, Poroderma pantherinum. The complete mitogenome is 16,686?bp in length, comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and one non-coding control region. Similar to other shark mitogenomes, it is AT rich (61.1%), with a GC content of 38.9%. Protein-coding genes used one of two start codons (ATG and GTG) and one stop codon (TAA/TA-/T-). Phylogenetic analysis of the leopard catshark and 34 carcharhinid species showed that it clusters with two other scyliorhinid species (Cephaloscyllium umbratile and Scyliorhinus canicula) with 100% support.

Complete mitochondrial genome and the phylogenetic position of the blackspotted catshark Halaelurus burgeri (Carcharhiniformes: Scyliorhinidae).

Project description:In this study, the mitogenome of the blackspotted catshark Halaelurus burgeri was first determined. This circle molecular was rich in A (30.7%)+T (30.4%), poor in C (25.0%)+G (13.8%) and contained 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a longest control region (3481 bp with lots of repeated motifs) in sharks.

Complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic position of Chaenodraco wilsoni.

Project description:Chaenodraco wilsoni, a species of Channichthyidae, inhabits in southern ocean. The total length of complete mitochondrial genome of C. wilsoni is 17,432?bp, which encoded 37 genes. Similar to most Antarctic fishes, the ND6/tRNA (glu) translocation and an additional non-coding region linked with ND6 have also occurred in C. wilsoni. The ML tree supports that C. wilsoni has closer relationship with Chionodraco species. Our research will provide more molecular biology information about C. wilsoni and deepen the understanding of Antarctic fishes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Aquila nipalensis and its phylogenetic position.

Project description:Mitochondrial genome sequences are valuable resources for systematics and conservation biology studies. In this paper, we present the complete mitogenome of Aquila nipalensis which was 18,450?bp in length. The gene content and arrangement were typical for avian mtDNA. The overall A?+?T content of was 54.1%, and the AT skew was calculated as 0.12 for the complete mitogenome of A. nipalensis. The maximum-likelihood (ML) tree based on the concatenated 12 protein-coding genes (PCGs) revealed the basal phylogenetic position of A. nipalensis in Aquila.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic position of Gobio coriparoides.

Project description:In this paper, we determined the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of Gobio coriparoides and analyzed its phylogenetic position. The complete mitogenome is 16,604 bp in length. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 1 control region. Among the 37 genes, 28 were encoded on the heavy strand, while 9 were encoded on the light strand. The overall base composition was 28.97% for A, 18.06% for G, 26.54% for T, and 26.43% for C, with a higher A + T content (55.51%). There are some overlaps existing in G. coriparoides mitochondrial genome. The neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree based on whole mitogenome sequences supported that G. coriparoides is the closest to G. cynocephalus. This result will provide a basic reference for understanding the genetic structure, molecular evolution, and phylogeny of G. coriparoides and related species.

The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Stichopus naso (Aspidochirotida: Stichopodidae: Stichopus) and Its Phylogenetic Position.

Project description:The mitochondrial genome is widely used to study the molecular evolution of and perform phylogenetic analyses on animals. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Stichopus naso was sequenced. The mitogenome was 16,239 bp in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs). The genome composition showed positive AT-skew (0.023) and negative GC-skew (-0.158). The order of the mitochondrial genes was consistent with those from the Stichopus and Isostichopus species, whereas it was different from those of other species of Aspidochirotida. The phylogenetic analysis, based on the nucleotide sequences of 13 PCGs through the methods of Bayesian inference (BI) and maximum likelihood (ML), indicated that S. naso has close relationships with S. horrens and S. monotuberculatus, and belongs to a member of Stichopodidae. Our study provides a reference mitogenome for further molecular evolution studies and phylogenetic research on sea cucumbers.

The phylogenetic position of Acoela as revealed by the complete mitochondrial genome of Symsagittifera roscoffensis.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Acoels are simply organized unsegmented worms, lacking hindgut and anus. Several publications over recent years challenge the long-held view that acoels are early offshoots of the flatworms. Instead a basal position as sister group to all other bilaterian animals was suggested, mainly based on molecular evidence. This led to the view that features of acoels might reflect those of the last common ancestor of Bilateria, and resulted in several evo-devo studies trying to interpret bilaterian evolution using acoels as a proxy model for the "Urbilateria". RESULTS: We describe the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a member of the Acoela, Symsagittifera roscoffensis. Gene content and circular organization of the mitochondrial genome does not significantly differ from other bilaterian animals. However, gene order shows no similarity to any other mitochondrial genome within the Metazoa. Phylogenetic analyses of concatenated alignments of amino acid sequences from protein coding genes support a position of Acoela and Nemertodermatida as the sister group to all other Bilateria. Our data provided no support for a sister group relationship between Xenoturbellida and Acoela or Acoelomorpha. The phylogenetic position of Xenoturbella bocki as sister group to or part of the deuterostomes was also unstable. CONCLUSIONS: Our phylogenetic analysis supports the view that acoels and nemertodermatids are the earliest divergent extant lineage of Bilateria. As such they remain a valid source for seeking primitive characters present in the last common ancestor of Bilateria. Gene order of mitochondrial genomes seems to be very variable among Acoela and Nemertodermatida and the groundplan for the metazoan mitochondrial genome remains elusive. More data are needed to interpret mitochondrial genome evolution at the base of Bilateria.
