Complete mitochondrial genome analysis of sp. (Sipuncula, Phascolosomatida, Phascolosomatidea) from Micronesia.

In this study a Sipuncula species sp. was collected from seagrass area from Chuuk lagoon Micronesia and its complete mitochondrial genome analyzed. This is the second complete mitochondrial genome record from the genus after . The total length of mitochondrial genome of the species is 16,571 bp, which is longer than record. Also, locations of tRNA-Gly and putative control region are different between two records. Furthermore, phylogenetic relationship of sp. are investigated due to protein-coding genes of mitochondrial genome. Due to the lack of recorded data, has been observed is the closest species to sp. and they are belonging to the monophyletic group.
