The complete mitochondrial genome of Montipora aequituberculata (Scleractinia, Acroporidae).


ABSTRACT: The complete mitogenome of the hexacorallia, Montipora aequituberculata has been amplified and sequenced. The mitogenome consists of 17,886?bp, with 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 2 transfer RNA genes and a control region. It has been observed that ND5 gene is split into two parts by a large fragment of genes, which commonly presented in scleractinian coral. The overall base composition of the H-strand was A, 24.91%; G, 24.1%; C, 14.2%; and T, 36.8%, with a slight AT bias of 61.7%. The control region was 627?bp in length and located between 12S rRNA and COIII gene. Based on the neighbour-joining (NJ) tree, M. aequituberculata was grouped with M. cactus, Anacropora matthai and Acropora tenuis, and formed a clade of Acroporidae. In conclusion, the complete mitogenome of M. aequituberculata data may provide more informative for phylogenetic approach for corals phylogeny.
