Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Cotylorhiza tuberculata assembled using next-generation sequencing.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Cotylorhiza tuberculata (Scyphozoa; Rhizostomeae; Cepheidae) was assembled by the next-generation sequencing data. The complete mitogenome spanned 16,590 bp and contained 14 protein-coding genes, two transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes. Total AT% content was 67.7%, comprising A 30.22%, C 16.16%, G 17.05%, and T 36.56%. The gene arrangement exhibited consistency with the known mitogenomes of other jellyfish species. Furthermore, the phylogenetic relationship of C. tuberculata was investigated based on analysis of the 13 common protein-coding genes. Results indicated a close relationship between C. tuberculata and both Cassiopea xamachana and Cassiopea andromeda. These findings pro
