The complete mitochondrial genome of the vulnerable Australian crest-tailed mulgara (Dasycercus cristicauda).

ABSTRACT: In this announcement, we report the complete mitogenome of the vulnerable Crest-tailed Mulgara (Dasycercus cristicauda) (Krefft, 1867). The mitogenome was 17,085 bp in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNAs and a 1583 bp variable control region (D-loop). The features of the D. cristicauda mitogenome are consistent with other vertebrate mitogenomes but, in contrast to other marsupials, appears to contain a functional tRNA-Lysine with a UUU anticodon. Phylogenetic analysis of available entire mitogenomes reveals it forms a cluster with other marsupials in the Dasyuromorphia order within the Australidelphian clade, being most closely related to the Northern Quoll and the Tasmanian Devil.

The complete mitochondrial genome of long-tailed whiskered bat, Myotis frater (Myotis, Vespertilionidae).

Project description:Here, we report the complete mitogenome of Myotis frater with the GenBank accession number MH177276 as a first step to elucidate genetic characteristics of this species. Its mitogenome was 17,089 bp long and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region. The gene order and composition of M. frater was similar to that of most other vertebrates. The base composition of the 13 PCG in descending order was A (33.8%), C (22.7%), T (30.4%), and G (13.1%), with an AT content of 64.2%. Four overlapping regions in ATP8/ATP6, ATP6/COX3, ND4L/ND4, and ND5/ND6, among the 13 PCGs were found. The 935 bp long control region is located between tRNA-Pro and tRNA-Phe with 4 ATTACATAATACATTATATGTATAATCGTACATTAAATTAACTCCCACATGAATATTAAGCATGTCCATACTAATATTAAT-repeat at 5' region and 45 ACGCAT-repeat at 3' terminus. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that M. frater is most closely related to M. bechsteinii (KX757757), it was supported by 100% bootstrap under both ML and NJ tree.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the vulnerable malabar pufferfish Carinotetraodon travancoricus (Tetraodontiformes, Tetraodontidae).

Project description:Carinotetraodon travancoricus was classified as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List due to habitat loss and overharvesting for the aquarium trade. To gain its molecular information and thus contribute to help in conserving this vulnerable species, we determined the complete mitochondrial DNA of the C. travancoricus. The size of the molecule is 16,542 nucleotides, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, a putative control region, and 1 origin of replication on the light-strand. The overall base composition includes C(28.8%), A(28.5%), T(27.1%), and G(15.6%). Moreover, the 13 PCGs encode 3800 amino acids in total. The result of the phylogenetic tree supports C. octofasciatus has a closest relationship with Tetraodon nigroviridis.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Australian ghost bat Macroderma gigas.

Project description:The Ghost bat Macroderma gigas is a monotypic bat species that is endemic to northern Australia and named on the basis of the large size of its partially conjoined ears. It is the only carnivorous bat found in Australia and its conservation status is currently listed as Vulnerable. Here, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of M. gigas and compare it to other vertebrates. The M. gigas circularized mitogenome was 16,661 bp and contained 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNAs and a control region (D-loop) of 1228 bp. Phylogenetic analysis of available entire mitogenomes reveals that Macroderma gigas is most closely related to the Indian false vampire bat Megaderma lyra in the family Megadermatidae (false vampire bats).

Project description:Bar-tailed Treecreeper Certhia himalayana usually lives in coniferous or mixed broadleaf-conifer forests, often crawling along the trunk. In this study, we first sequenced and described the complete mitochondrial genome and phylogeny of C. himalayana. The whole genome of C. himalayana was 16,852 bp in length, and contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosome RNA genes, and 1 non-coding control regions. The overall base composition of the mitochondrial DNA was 25.1% for A, 29.2% for T, 14.5% for C, 31.2% for G, with a GC content of 45.7%. A phylogenetic tree strongly supported that C. himalayana closely related with Family Troglodytidae by highly probability.

The first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of an Australian raven (Corvus coronoides).

Project description:Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of an Australian raven (Corvus coronoides). The mitogenome of C. coronoides was characterised as a circular molecule of 16,925 bp in length encoding a typically conserved structure similar to those of other Corvidae. It consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes, with all protein-coding sequences commencing with methionine. The lengths of 12S ribosomal RNA and 16S ribosomal RNA were 980 bp and 1600 bp, respectively, and were located between tRNA-Phe and tRNA-Leu. The overall base composition of the mitogenome of C. coronoides was slightly higher AT (56.0%) content than GC (44.0%). A phylogenetic tree using available complete mitogenome sequences of the family Corvidae revealed a close evolutionary relationship of C. coronoides with the now extinct Chatham raven (C. moriorum), a large songbird that was native to the Chatham Islands east of New Zealand.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Australian Common Rock Rat, Zyzomys argurus.

Project description:The Common Rock Rat Zyzomys argurus is an abundant small- to medium-sized Murid rodent that is endemic to Australia. It is a nocturnal mammal with a mostly herbivorous diet. This species is native to the wet/dry tropics of Northern Australia and can be identified from other rock rats on the basis of its small size and its tail length (which is at least equivalent to its head-body length). Here, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of Z. argurus and compare it to other Rodentia. The Z. argurus circular mitogenome was 16,261 bp and contained 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNAs and a control region (D-loop) of 859 bp. Phylogenetic analysis of selected, published sequenced mitogenomes reveal it is most closely related to the Lakeland Downs mouse Leggadina lakedownensis in the order Rodentia.
