RESUMEN
The complete mitochondrial genome of Sinularia penghuensis was sequenced and analyzed using next-generation sequencing. The present mitochondrial genome was 18730 bp in length, containing 14 protein-coding genes (PCGs) (cox1-cox3.nad1-nad6, nad4L, atp6, atp8, cytb, and MutS), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs) (12S and 16S), and one transfer RNA gene (Met-tRNA). The phylogenetic analysis of family Alcyoniidae revealed that S. penghuensis and Sinularia maxima cluster together. Five species in Sinularia reveals high identity in mitogenome sequences that the lowest variable sites (SNPs) were found between S. penghuensis and S. maxima.
RESUMEN
The mitochondrial genome of Sinularia maxima was completed using next-generation sequencing (NGS) method. The mitochondrial genome is a circular molecule of 18,730 bp in length. The gene arrangements include 14 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 tRNA (tRNA-Met). The base composition is 30.18% A, 16.47% C, 19.35% G, and 33.99% T, with an A + T content of 64.18%. With regard to the phylogenetic analysis, members of genus Sinularia were clustered in different clades.
RESUMEN
The complete mitochondrial genome of Sarcophyton trocheliophorum was completed using next-generation sequencing (NGS) method. The mitochondrial genome is a circular molecule of 18,508 bp in length, containing 14 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and one transfer RNA gene (Met-tRNA). The base composition is 30.45% A, 16.03% C, 19.13% G, and 34.40% T, with an A + T content of 64.85%. A phylogenetic analysis of Alcyoniidae showed that genus Sarcophyton had the closest relationship with Sinularia.
RESUMEN
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Asian river pipefish Doryichthys boaja was sequenced. The mitochondrial genome is a circular molecule of 16,439 bp in length, containing 37 mitochondrial genes and a control region. The base composition is 31.03% A, 24.22% C, 14.44% G, and 30.32% T, with an A + T content of 61.35%. All PCGs were initiated by ATG start codon expecting COX1 by GTG. A phylogenetic tree showed that Doryichthys boaja clustered with Microphis brachyurus.
RESUMEN
The complete mitochondrial genome of Solegnathus hardwickii was determined to be 16,519 bp long circular molecule with a typical gene arrangement of vertebrate mitochondrial. The complete mitochondrial genomes were obtained by conventional and long PCR. Tree constructed using maximum likelihood based on protein-coding genes and ribosomal RNAs showed close relationship of S. hardwickii with Hippocampus spp.
