Revisiting mitogenome evolution in Medusozoa with eight new mitochondrial genomes.

Mitogenomics has improved our understanding of medusozoan phylogeny. However, sequenced medusozoan mitogenomes remain scarce, and Medusozoa phylogeny studies often analyze mitogenomic sequences without incorporating mitogenome rearrangements. To better understand medusozoan evolution, we analyzed Medusozoa mitogenome phylogeny by sequencing and assembling eight mitogenomes from three classes (Cubozoa, Hydrozoa, and Scyphozoa).
