The complete mitochondrial genome of Takydromus amurensis (Squamata: Lacertidae).

ABSTRACT: The complete mitogenome sequence of Takydromus amurensis (Squamata: Lacertidae) is determined using long PCR for the first time in this study. It is a circular molecule of 17 333?bp in length (GenBank accession number: KU641018). Similar to the most other lizards, the complete mtDNA sequence of T. amurensis contained two rRNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA), 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) and a control region (D-loop). The nucleotide composition was 31.23% A, 26.06% C, 13.91% G and 28.8% T. Mitochondrial genomes analyses based on NJ method yield phylogenetic trees, including 14 reported lizards belonging to three families (Lacertidae, Gekkonidae and Agamidae). These molecular data presented here provide a useful tool for systematic analyses of genus Takydromus.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Eremias yarkandensis (Reptilia, Squamata, Lacertidae) from Kyrgyzstan.

Project description:The Yarkand racerunner, Eremias yarkandensis Blandford, 1875, is only distributed in China and Kyrgyzstan. Its complete mitogenome was determined by next-generation sequencing for the first time. The mitogenome was 18,743 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 control region. Its gene arrangement was similar to the typical mtDNA of vertebrates. The 13 concatenated PCGs were used to perform Bayesian phylogenetic analyses together with several congeners as well as two representative species of Lacerta with mitogenome data in GenBank. The resulting phylogenetic tree recovered the monophyly of both Eremias and its viviparous group, with E. yarkandensis being more closely related to E. przewalskii than to E. dzungarica. The mitogenome of E. yarkandensis will provide fundamental data for the exploration of the mitogenome evolution in racerunners.

A new species of the genus Takydromus (Squamata, Lacertidae) from southwestern Guangdong, China.

Project description:A new species, Takydromus yunkaiensis J. Wang, Lyu, & Y.Y. Wang, sp. nov. is described based on a series of specimens collected from the Yunkaishan Nature Reserve located in the southern Yunkai Mountains, western Guangdong Province, China. The new species is a sister taxon to T. intermedius with a genetic divergence of 8.0-8.5% in the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene, and differs from all known congeners by a combination of the following morphological characters: (1) body size moderate, SVL 37.8-56.0 mm in males, 42.6-60.8 mm in females; (2) dorsal ground color brown; ventral surface green to yellow-green, but light blue-green on chin and throat, posteriorly green in adult males; (3) dorsolateral lines paired, strikingly yellowish-white bordered by black above and below, invisible or indistinct in juveniles and adult females; (4) flanks of body blackish brown with light brown marks in adult males; (5) presence of four pairs of chin-shields; (6) four supraoculars on each side; (7) presence of a row of supracilary granules that separate supracilaries from supraoculars; (8) two postnasals; (9) enlarged dorsal scales in six longitudinal rows on trunk of body, with strong keel; (10) enlarged ventral scales in six longitudinal rows, strongly keeled in males, smooth but outermost rows weakly keeled in females; (11) enlarged and keeled lateral scales in a row above ventrals; (12) femoral pores 2-3 on each side; (13) subdigital lamellae 20-23 under the fourth finger, 23-30 under the fourth toe; and (14) the first 2-3 subdigital lamellae under the fourth toe divided. The discovery of Takydromus yunkaiensis sp. nov. brings the total number of species of this genus to 24, of which nine occur in mainland China.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Eremias dzungarica (Reptilia, Squamata, Lacertidae) from the Junggar Basin in Northwest China.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Eremias dzungarica from the Junggar Basin in Northwest China was determined for the first time by next-generation sequencing. The total length is 19,899 bp, containing13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and one control region. This gene arrangement is similar to the typical mtDNA of vertebrates. The 13 concatenated PCGs were used to perform Bayesian phylogenetic analyses together with several congeners as well as ten representative lacertids with mitogenome data available in GenBank. The resulting phylogenetic tree supports the monophyly of viviparous species in Eremias, with E. dzungarica being more closely related to E. przewalskii than to E. multiocellata. The mitogenome of E. dzungarica will provide fundamental data for the exploration of the mitogenome evolution in lacertids.

Characterizing complete mitochondrial genome of Aquilegia amurensis and its evolutionary implications.

Project description:BackgroundAquilegia is a model system for studying the evolution of adaptive radiation. However, very few studies have been conducted on the Aquilegia mitochondrial genome. Since mitochondria play a key role in plant adaptation to abiotic stress, analyzing the mitochondrial genome may provide a new perspective for understanding adaptive evolution.ResultsThe Aquilegia amurensis mitochondrial genome was characterized by a circular chromosome and two linear chromosomes, with a total length of 538,736 bp; the genes included 33 protein-coding genes, 24 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and 3 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. We subsequently conducted a phylogenetic analysis based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the mitochondrial genomes of 18 Aquilegia species, which were roughly divided into two clades: the European-Asian clade and the North American clade. Moreover, the genes mttB and rpl5 were shown to be positively selected in European-Asian species, and they may help European and Asian species adapt to environmental changes.ConclusionsIn this study, we assembled and annotated the first mitochondrial genome of the adaptive evolution model plant Aquilegia. The subsequent analysis provided us with a basis for further molecular studies on Aquilegia mitochondrial genomes and valuable information on adaptive evolution in Aquilegia.

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.
