Complete cox 1 gene and ITS sequence of Hirudinaria manillensis and molecular evolution analysis.

ABSTRACT: Hirudinaria manillensis is an important blood-sucking medicinal leech widely distributed in Southeast Asia and southern China. It has been shown to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Molecular identification technology has developed rapidly, and the results are accurate and stable, which can help us to obtain rich biological information of samples for genetic evolution analysis. This study designed 3 pairs of primers for complete cox 1 gene. After sequencing by PCR products and splicing by SeqMan software, the full-length sequence of cox 1 gene was obtained by annotation of open reading frame (ORFs) on MITOS2 platform. The cox 1 gene with a length of 1536nt was obtained, and the species was identified as Hirudinaria manillensis. The Hd value and FST value of cox 1 gene were
