Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Jayakar's seahorse Hippocampus jayakari Boulenger, 1900 (Gasterosteiformes: Syngnathidae).

Project description:In the present study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of Jayakar's seahorse, Hippocampus jayakari Boulenger, 1900. The genome of H. jayakari is found to be 16,520 bp in length and has a base composition of A (32.82%), C (23.28%), G (14.13%), and T (29.67%). Similar to other Hippocampus species, it contains a typically conserved structure including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 1 control region (D-loop), and 22 tRNA genes. The protein-coding genes had ATG or GTG as the initiation codon and only 6 genes (COX1, ATP8, ATP6, ND4L, ND5 and ND6) terminated by the complete typical stop codon TAA. The lengths of 12S rRNA and 16S rRNA are 939 bp and 1686 bp, respectively. All tRNA genes typically formed a cloverleaf secondary structure, except for tRNA-Ser containing a dihydrouridine arm replacement loop. Hippocampus jayakari exhibited a relatively distant genetic relationship with other 13 Hippocamupus species according to the phylogenetic analysis. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence provided here would be useful for further understanding the evolution of Hippocamupus and conservation genetics of H. jayakari.

Hippocampuswhitei Bleeker, 1855, a senior synonym of the southern Queensland seahorse H.procerus Kuiter, 2001: molecular and morphological evidence (Teleostei, Syngnathidae).

Project description:The taxonomic status of the seahorse Hippocampusprocerus Kuiter, 2001, type locality Hervey Bay, QLD, Australia, was re-examined based on its strong morphological similarity and geographical proximity to its congener H.whitei Bleeker, 1855, a species recorded in ten estuaries of New South Wales, Australia. Kuiter (2001) distinguished H.procerus from H.whitei by a taller coronet, marginally lower meristics, and spinier physiognomy. Meristic, morphometric, and key diagnostic morphological character comparisons from vouchered specimens of the two purported species collected from Sydney Harbour, Nelson Bay, Port Stephens, NSW and Hervey Bay, Bundaberg, and Moreton Bay, QLD did not show diagnostic differences to support species-level classification of H.procerus. Furthermore, partial mitochondrial COI sequence data from specimens sampled from known geographical distributions in NSW and Southport, QLD failed to discriminate between populations as a result of shared haplotypes, and revealed an average intraspecific divergence of 0.002%. Hippocampusprocerus is hereby placed in the synonymy of H.whitei; a redescription is provided, with a revised record of its range across eastern Australia.

Hippocampus nalu, a new species of pygmy seahorse from South Africa, and the first record of a pygmy seahorse from the Indian Ocean (Teleostei, Syngnathidae).

Project description:A new species and the first confirmed record of a true pygmy seahorse from Africa, Hippocampus nalu sp. nov., is herein described on the basis of two specimens, 18.9-22 mm SL, collected from flat sandy coral reef at 14-17 meters depth from Sodwana Bay, South Africa. The new taxon shares morphological synapomorphies with the previously described central Indo-Pacific pygmy seahorses, H. colemani, H. japapigu, H. pontohi, and H. satomiae, and H. waleananus, including diminutive size, twelve trunk rings, prominent cleithral ring and supracleithrum, spines on the fifth and twelfth superior and lateral trunk ridges, respectively, and prominent wing-like protrusions present on the first and/or second superior trunk rings posterior to the head. Hippocampus nalu sp. nov. is primarily distinguished from its pygmy seahorse congeners by highly distinct spine morphology along the anterior segments of the superior trunk ridge. Comparative molecular analysis reveals that the new species demonstrates significant genetic divergence in the mitochondrial COI gene from the morphologically similar H. japapigu and H. pontohi (estimated uncorrected p-distances of 16.3% and 15.2%, respectively). Hippocampus nalu sp. nov. represents the eighth member of the pygmy seahorse clade to be described from the Indo-Pacific, the first confirmed record from the African continent and the Indian Ocean, and an extension of more than 8000 km beyond the previously known range of pygmy seahorses from the Central and Western Indo-Pacific.

Draft genome of the lined seahorse, Hippocampus erectus.

Project description:BackgroundThe lined seahorse, Hippocampus erectus , is an Atlantic species and mainly inhabits shallow sea beds or coral reefs. It has become very popular in China for its wide use in traditional Chinese medicine. In order to improve the aquaculture yield of this valuable fish species, we are trying to develop genomic resources for assistant selection in genetic breeding. Here, we provide whole genome sequencing, assembly, and gene annotation of the lined seahorse, which can enrich genome resource and further application for its molecular breeding. A total of 174.6 Gb (Gigabase) raw DNA sequences were generated by the Illumina Hiseq2500 platform. The final assembly of the lined seahorse genome is around 458 Mb, representing 94% of the estimated genome size (489 Mb by k-mer analysis). The contig N50 and scaffold N50 reached 14.57 kb and 1.97 Mb, respectively. Quality of the assembled genome was assessed by BUSCO with prediction of 85% of the known vertebrate genes and evaluated using the de novo assembled RNA-seq transcripts to prove a high mapping ratio (more than 99% transcripts could be mapped to the assembly). Using homology-based, de novo and transcriptome-based prediction methods, we predicted 20 788 protein-coding genes in the generated assembly, which is less than our previously reported gene number (23 458) of the tiger tail seahorse ( H. comes ). We report a draft genome of the lined seahorse. These generated genomic data are going to enrich genome resource of this economically important fish, and also provide insights into the genetic mechanisms of its iconic morphology and male pregnancy behavior.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Greek nine-spined stickleback Pungitius hellenicus (Gasterosteiformes, Gasterosteidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of the Greek nine-spined stickleback Pungitius hellenicus was obtained using Illumina high-throughput sequencing of genomic DNA. The genome was 16 713 bp long, and contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and a control region. The arrangement of the genes was identical to that of other Gasterosteidae fishes. However, the control region of P. hellenicus contained three copies of imperfect repeated sequences (72-78 bp in single motifs), while P. pungitius and P. tymensis have one or two copies. Nucleotide identity between P. hellenicus and three other Pungitius species across all the 37 genic regions was 93.0% to 95.5%.
