The blood-sucking tick Haemaphysalis hystricis is a common ectoparasite of the giant panda and represents a significant threat to both wild and captive populations. Herein, the complete mitogenome of H. hystricis was sequenced using Illumina sequencing technology. The complete mitogenome sequence was 14,715 bp in size and encoded 37 genes including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and two ribosomal RNAs. Phylogeny revealed that two isolates of H. hystricis, regardless of host origins and locations, grouped together and had a closer relationship with Haemaphysalis longicornis than other tick species among the genus Haemaphysalis. The cumulative mitochondrial DNA data provides novel resources for genetic and phylogenetic studies of Haemaphysalis ticks.

The dog hookworm Ancylostoma caninum (Nematoda, Ancylostomatidae) is a blood-feeding intestinal parasitic nematode and can cause ancylostomiasis in humans. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of this anthropozoonotic hookworm was sequenced through Illumina deep sequencing technology. The whole genome was 13,721 bp in length and encoded 36 genes including 12 proteincoding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs. Phylogeny revealed that A. caninum grouped with species from Ancylostomatinae and separated from species of Bunostominae in the family Ancylostomatidae. Amongst the subfamily Ancylostomatinae, three dog-originated A. caninum, regardless of isolate origins, clustered together and were more closely related to the cat hookworm A. tubaeforme and the human hookworm A. duodenale than to the dog/cat hookworm A. ceylanicum and the sea lion hookworm Uncinaria sanguinis. Taken together, the cumulative mitochondrial DNA data provides insights into phylogenetic studies among Ancylostomatidae nematodes.

“…Then, one worm was used for mtDNA extraction and another was fixed in 5% formalin solution and archived in the Parasitological Museum of Sichuan Agricultural University (Sichuan, China) under collection numbers XY2018_11. Total mtDNA was sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq platform (Novogene, Tianjin, China), and the assembly and annotation of the mitochondrial genome were carried out as previously described (Xie et al 2019).…”

Toxascaris leonina (Nematoda, Ascarididae) is a cosmopolitan nematode of canids and felids and poses potential threats to public health due to aberrant larva migrans. Herein, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a representative of this nematode from the dog in China was determined using next-generation sequencing technology. The assembled genome was 14,357 bp in length and encoded 36 genes, including 12 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs and 2 ribosomal RNAs. The phylogeny revealed that the canid-originated T. leonina were phylogenetic distinctiveness from the felid-originated T. leonina within the genus Toxascaris of Ascarididae, supporting that T. leonina may represent a species complex.
