Characterization and Phylogenetic Analysis of the First Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Gnathophyllum americanum (Guérin-Méneville, 1855) (Malacostraca: Decapoda: Palaemonidae)
Abstract:Complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences can provide useful and varied information for evolutionary and phylogenetic studies. We report the first complete mitogenome sequence of the bumblebee shrimp (Gnathophyllum americanum). The mitogenome is 15,842 bp in length and contains 13 protein-encoding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. The nucleotide composition of the mitogenome was as follows: A,36.72%; T,29.62%; C,21.0%; and G,12.66%. The most common start and stop codons are AT… Show more
