AI Article Synopsis
- The study successfully sequenced the mitogenome of the sponge (Kadota, 1922) for the first time, revealing a circular genome that is 20,722 base pairs long.
- The mitogenome contains 14 protein coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and 25 transfer RNAs, with a nucleotide composition showing a high percentage of adenine and thymine (A+T: 64.2%).
- These findings will aid in understanding the evolutionary relationships within the Halichondriidae family of sponges in the Suberitida order.
Article Abstract
The mitogenome sequence of Sponge (Kadota, 1922) (Suberitida, Halichondriidae) was determined for the first time in this study. The circular genome is 20,722 bp in length, containing 14 protein coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and 25 transfer RNAs (tRNAs). The nucleotide composition of mitogenome consists of 29.5% A, 14.2% C, 21.5% G, 34.7% T, showing a high content of A + T similar to the other Suberitid sponges. These results will be useful for inferring the phylogenetic relationships among the members of family Halichondriidae within the Suberitids.
