Complete mitogenomes for two lineages of the Australian smelt, Retropinna semoni (Osmeriformes: Retropinnidae).

ABSTRACT: Complete mitochondrial genome sequences were determined for two lineages ("CEQ" and "SEQ") of the Australian smelt, Retropinna semoni. Both mitogenomes contain the typical vertebrate arrangement of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and control region. A conventional start codon for ND2 was not present in either lineage; instead CTG (Leucine) was present at this position. These sequences will be a useful resource for evolutionary studies of a significant species complex in the Australian freshwater fish fauna.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the surf smelt Hypomesus japonicus (Osmeriformes, Osmeridae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced in two individuals of the surf smelt Hypomesus japonicus. The genome sequences are 16,762 and 16,771 bp in size, and the gene arrangement, composition, and size are very similar to the other smelt mitochondrial genomes published previously. The difference between two H. japonicus genomes studied is 0.37%, which is noticeably higher in comparison with other osmerid fishes. The level of sequence divergence between H. japonicus and related osmerids belonging to genera Hypomeus, Osmerus, and Mallotus varies within a very narrow range (12.31-13.72%) indicating poor phylogenetic resolution of this complex fish group.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Arctic rainbow smelt Osmerus dentex (Osmeriformes, Osmeridae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced in two individuals of the Arctic rainbow smelt Osmerus dentex. The genome sequences are 16,615 and 16,616?bp in size, and the gene arrangement, composition, and size are very similar to the other smelt mitochondrial genomes published previously. The difference between the two O. dentex genomes studied is 0.25%, that is, 5.0 times higher in comparison with close species, the European smelt O. eperlanus studied previously. The level of mitochondrial genome divergence between O. dentex and close osmerid fishes, O. eperlanus, and O. mordax is high enough (6.86-7.54%) to consider all of them as separate biological species.

Two Complete Mitogenomes of Chalcididae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea): Genome Description and Phylogenetic Implications.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genomes of two species of Chalcididae were newly sequenced: Brachymeria lasus and Haltichella nipponensis. Both circular mitogenomes are 15,147 and 15,334 bp in total length, respectively, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs) and an A+T-rich region. The nucleotide composition indicated a strong A/T bias. All PCGs of B. lasus and H. nipponensis began with the start codon ATD, except for B. lasus, which had an abnormal initiation codon TTG in ND1. Most PCGs of the two mitogenomes are terminated by a codon of TAR, and the remaining PCGs by the incomplete stop codon T or TA (ATP6, COX3, and ND4 in both species, with an extra CYTB in B. lasus). Except for trnS1 and trnF, all tRNAs can be folded into a typical clover structure. Both mitogenomes had similar control regions, and two repeat units of 135 bp were found in H. nipponensis. Phylogenetic analyses based on two datasets (PCG123 and PCG12) covering Chalcididae and nine families of Chalcidoidea were conducted using two methods (maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference); all the results support Mymaridae as the sister group of the remaining Chalcidoidea, with Chalcididae as the next successive group. Only analyses of PCG123 generated similar topologies of Mymaridae + (Chalcididae + (Agaonidae + remaining Chalcidoidea)) and provided one relative stable clade as Eulophidae + (Torymidae + (Aphelinidae + Trichogrammatidae)). Our mitogenomic phylogenetic results share one important similarity with earlier molecular phylogenetic efforts: strong support for the monophyly of many families, but a largely unresolved or unstable "backbone" of relationships among families.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Hypomesus olidus (Osmeriformes: Osmeridae).

Project description:Pond smelt Hypomesus olidus is a small-sized economic species of freshwater fish with delicious meat and high output. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of H. olidus sequenced to be 16,786?bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a control region. The overall base composition of H. olidus is 24.3% for A, 27.3% for T, 29.2% for C and 19.2% for G, with a slight A?+?T bias. The mitogenome sequence data may provide useful information to the population genetics analysis of H. olidus and the elucidation of evolutionary mechanisms in Hypomesus fish.

Complete Anopheles funestus mitogenomes reveal an ancient history of mitochondrial lineages and their distribution in southern and central Africa.

Project description:Anopheles funestus s.s. is a primary vector of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite its important role in human Plasmodium transmission, evolutionary history, genetic diversity, and population structure of An. funestus in southern and central Africa remains understudied. We deep sequenced, assembled, and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of An. funestus s.s. for the first time, providing a foundation for further genetic research of this important malaria vector species. We further analyzed the complete mitochondrial genomes of 43 An. funestus s.s. from three sites in Zambia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Tanzania. From these 43 mitogenomes we identified 41 unique haplotypes that comprised 567 polymorphic sites. Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction confirmed the co-existence of two highly divergent An. funestus maternal lineages, herein defined as lineages I and II, in Zambia and Tanzania. The estimated coalescence time of these two mitochondrial lineages is ~500,000 years ago (95% HPD 426,000-594,000 years ago) with subsequent independent diversification. Haplotype network and phylogenetic analysis revealed two major clusters within lineage I, and genetic relatedness of samples with deep branching in lineage II. At this time, data suggest that the lineages are partially sympatric. This study illustrates that accurate retrieval of full mitogenomes of Anopheles vectors enables fine-resolution studies of intraspecies genetic relationships, population differentiation, and demographic history. Further investigations on whether An. funestus mitochondrial lineages represent biologically meaningful populations and their potential implications for malaria vector control are warranted.

Comparative Analysis of Complete Mitogenomes of Two Oxyurichthys Gobies and Their Phylogenetic Implication.

Project description:Oxyurichthys is a genus of goby that is widespread in the tropical Indo-West Pacific region. Oxyurichthys species are usually found in estuarine and coastal marine habitats. In Southeast Asia, they are commercial fishes and often collected by trawling to serve the market's demand. The mitogenome serves as a good marker for investigating the systematics and evolution of fishes, but the mitogenome of Oxyurichthys species remains unknown. In this study, mitogenomes of two Oxyurichthys gobies, O. ophthalmonema and O. microlepis, were characterized and compared. The sizes of the mitogenomes were 16,504 bp and 16,506 bp for O. ophthalmonema and O. microlepis, respectively. Mitogenomes of these two species were similar in gene content and structure. Both included 37 genes and a control region. The two Oxyurichthys mitogenomes shared similar gene features and base composition with other recorded gobies. Typical conserved blocks (CSB-1, CSB-2, CSB-3 and CSB-D) were found in the control region of both species. Phylogenetic analyses based on concatenation of 13 protein-coding genes and 2 rRNAs revealed that the two Oxyurichthys species clustered together and were sister to species of the genera Sicydium, Sicyopterus and Stiphodon. The findings of the present study support previous evolutionary studies of gobies using other molecular markers.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Salangid icefish Neosalanx taihuensis (Actinopterygii: Osmeriformes: Salangidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial DNA genome of the Salangid icefish (Neosalanx taihuensis) was sequenced by the primer walking sequence method. The entire mitochondrial genome of this species is 17,035 bp in length, making it the longest among the reported mitochondrial genomes of Osmeriformes. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and one control region (CR). The gene arrangement, nucleotide composition, and codon usage pattern of the mitochondrial genome are similar to those of other teleosts except for two long tandem repeats in the CR. A 486 bp tandem repeat fragment was identified that comprises 2 copies of 243 bp motif and accounts approximately 35.5% of the CR. The 243 bp tandem repeat motif can be folded into a stem-loop secondary structure. Phylogenetic analysis based on 12 concatenated protein-coding genes of the heavy strand shows the genus Neosalanx diverged most recently and clustered with Protosalanx hyalocranius as a clade.

Two new species of Erythroneurini (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Typhlocybinae) from southern China based on morphology and complete mitogenomes.

Project description:Erythroneurine leafhoppers (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Typhlocybinae, Erythroneurini) are utilized to resolve the relationship between the four erythroneurine leafhopper (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Typhlocybinae, Erythroneurini): Arboridia (Arboridia) rongchangensis sp. nov., Thaia (Thaia) jiulongensis sp. nov., Mitjaevia bifurcata Luo, Song & Song, 2021 and Mitjaevia diana Luo, Song & Song, 2021, the two new species are described and illustrated. The mitochondrial gene sequences of these four species were determined to update the mitochondrial genome database of Erythroneurini. The mitochondrial genomes of four species shared high parallelism in nucleotide composition, base composition and gene order, comprising 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and an AT control region, which was consistent with majority of species in Cicadellidae; all genes revealed common trait of a positive AT skew and negative GC skew. The mitogenomes of four species were ultra-conservative in structure, and which isanalogous to that of others in size and A + T content. Phylogenetic trees based on the mitogenome data of these species and another 24 species were built employing the maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods. The results indicated that the four species belong to the tribe Erythroneurini, M. diana is the sister-group relationship of M. protuberanta + M. bifurcata. The two species Arboridia (Arboridia) rongchangensis sp. nov. and Thaia (Thaia) jiulongensis sp. nov. also have a relatively close genetic relationship with the genus Mitjaevia.

Complete vertebrate mitogenomes reveal widespread repeats and gene duplications.

Project description:BackgroundModern sequencing technologies should make the assembly of the relatively small mitochondrial genomes an easy undertaking. However, few tools exist that address mitochondrial assembly directly.ResultsAs part of the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP) we develop mitoVGP, a fully automated pipeline for similarity-based identification of mitochondrial reads and de novo assembly of mitochondrial genomes that incorporates both long (> 10 kbp, PacBio or Nanopore) and short (100-300 bp, Illumina) reads. Our pipeline leads to successful complete mitogenome assemblies of 100 vertebrate species of the VGP. We observe that tissue type and library size selection have considerable impact on mitogenome sequencing and assembly. Comparing our assemblies to purportedly complete reference mitogenomes based on short-read sequencing, we identify errors, missing sequences, and incomplete genes in those references, particularly in repetitive regions. Our assemblies also identify novel gene region duplications. The presence of repeats and duplications in over half of the species herein assembled indicates that their occurrence is a principle of mitochondrial structure rather than an exception, shedding new light on mitochondrial genome evolution and organization.ConclusionsOur results indicate that even in the "simple" case of vertebrate mitogenomes the completeness of many currently available reference sequences can be further improved, and caution should be exercised before claiming the complete assembly of a mitogenome, particularly from short reads alone.

Complete paternally inherited mitogenomes of two freshwater mussels Unio pictorum and Sinanodonta woodiana (Bivalvia: Unionidae).

Project description:Freshwater bivalves from the family Unionidae usually have two very divergent mitogenomes, inherited according to the doubly uniparental model. The early divergence of these two mitogenomic lineages gives a unique opportunity to use two mitogenomic data sets in a single phylogenetic context. However, the number of complete sequences of the maternally inherited mitogenomes of these animals available in GenBank greatly exceeds that of the paternally inherited mitogenomes. This is a problem for phylogenetic reconstruction because it limits the use of both mitogenomic data sets. Moreover, since long branch attraction phenomenon can bias reconstructions if only a few but highly divergent taxa are considered, the shortage of the faster evolving paternally inherited mitogenome sequences is a real problem. Here we provide, for the first time, complete sequences of the M mitogenomes sampled from Polish populations of two species: native Unio pictorum and invasive Sinanodonta woodiana. It increases the available set of mitogenomic pairs to 18 species per family, and allows unambiguous reconstruction of phylogenetic relationships among them. The reconstructions based on M and F mitogenomes which were separated for many millions of years, and subject to differing evolutionary dynamics, are fully congruent.
