AI Article Synopsis
- The mitochondrial genome of an invasive Mediterranean sabellid species introduced to Australia and New Zealand is 15,581 base pairs long and contains 38 genes.
- This genome features unique reorganizations compared to traditional annelid mitogenomes and includes both protein-coding and tRNA genes.
- Phylogenetic analysis shows that this sabellid is closely related to another species, indicating a sister relationship.
Article Abstract
We report the mitochondrial genome of , an invasive Mediterranean sabellid introduced to Australia and New Zealand. The mitogenome is 15,581 bp long and consists of 38 genes, including 13 protein coding genes, two rRNA genes, and 23 tRNA genes. It shows deviations from the putative annelid ground pattern, such as gene order re-arrangements and regions encoding on the negative strand. It is, however, very different from the mitogenome of the closely related serpulid, . Phylogenetic analyses of the mitochondrial genes support a sister relationship of and .
