Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of a holothurians species: Holothuria hilla (Holothuroidea: Holothuriidae).

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial genome sequence is a great potential method to both resolve disputed taxonomic issues and to infer phylogenetic relationships among holothurians. In this study, we present the complete mitochondrial genome of Holothuria hilla which was 15,744 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a putative control region. The gene content and arrangement were typical for Holothuroidea ground pattern. The overall base composition was 32.43% A, 27.20% T, 24.35% C and 16.02% G, showing a bias toward A + T (59.63%). The maximum-likelihood tree based on the concatenated 13 protein-coding genes revealed the phylogenetic relationships among the Holothuroidea species.

The complete mitochondrial genome of black sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota (Aspidochirotida holothuriidae).

Project description:The black sea cucumber, Holothuria leucospilota, is an ecologically and economically important holothuroid in China due to broader environmental adaptation and valuable pharmacological compounds. However, the wild stocks of H. leucospilota, have been declining steadily due to overexploitation in recent years. The stock enhancement programme has become an increasingly important priority. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of H. leucospilota. The mitogenome has 15,839 base pairs (57.6% A + T content) and made up of total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs and 2 ribosomal RNAs), and a putative control region. The complete mitogenomes of H. leucospilota will provide useful genetic information for future conservation and management of this valuable and vulnerable species.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Actinopyga lecanora (Jaeger, 1833) (Holothuriida: Holothuriidae).

Project description:The white-bottomed sea cucumber, Actinopyga lecanora, is a valuable inshore fisheries resource which is famous for its high nutrition and pharmacological compounds. However, due to morphological plasticity and limited molecular phylogenetic studies, the taxonomic histories in the genus Actinopyga have not been completely resolved yet. Moreover, there remains a complex of cryptic species within Actinopyga, many of which are incorrectly assigned within the family Holothuriidae. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of A. lecanora. The mitogenome has 15,568 base pairs (63.40% A + T content) and is made up of a total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs and 2 ribosomal RNAs), plus a putative control region. This study offers useful mitogenome data for future phylogenetic and taxonomic classification of Holothuriidae.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Holothuria fuscocinerea (Jaeger,1833).

Project description:In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Holothuria fuscocinerea was sequenced on an Illumina platform and assembled using NovoPlasty v. 2.7.1. It was submitted to NCBI GenBank and is available with accession number MN542416. The genome was 15,827 bp in size and contains 22 tRNA genes, 12 protein-coding genes, and 2 rRNA genes. The composition of A + T in Holothura spinifera mtDNA was 60.30%. Except ND6 and 5 tRNAs, the others are not on the H-strand. The phylogenetic relationship of 13 species of sea cucumber were analyzed using the neighbor-joining method by software MEGA5.0. Holothuria fuscocinerea was most closely related to Holothuria polii.

Analysis of Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Bohadschia argus (Jaeger, 1833) (Aspidochirotida, Holothuriidae).

Project description:Bohadschia argu is a kind of sea cucumber with high economic value; it is the only undisputed species in the genus Bohadschia. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of B. argus was acquired through high-throughput sequencing. The mitochondrial genome of B. argus was 15,656 bp in total length and contained a putative control region (CR) and 37 typical genes of animal mitochondrial genomes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rrnS and rrnL) and 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA). The sizes of the PCGs ranged from 168 bp to 1833 bp, and all PCGs except nad6 were encoded on the heavy chain (H). Both rrnS and rrnL were also encoded on the H chain. Twenty-two tRNA genes had positive AT skew and GC skew. All tRNAs had a typical cloverleaf secondary structure except for trnI, in which an arm of dihydrouridine was missing. B. argus shared the same gene arrangement order (the echinoderm ground pattern) as other species in Aspidochirotida. Phylogenetic analysis clearly revealed that B. argus belongs as a member of the Holothuriidae, and it is closely related to members of Actinopyga and Holothuria.

The first complete mitochondrial genome of Actinopyga from Actinopyga echinites (Aspidochirotida: Holothuriidae).

Project description:The deep-water redfish, Actinopyga echinites, is an ecologically and economically important holothuroid in China due to its valuable nutrition and pharmacological compounds. However, the taxonomy and phylogeny of the Actinopyga have been debated and misidentifications have been reported recently. Moreover, there remain considerable doubts about cryptic species complex within Actinopyga. In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of Actinopyga from A. echinites. The mitogenome has 15,619 base pairs (62.9% A + T content) and made up of a total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs), and a putative control region. This study was the first available complete mitogenome of Actinopyga and will provide useful genetic information for future phylogenetic and taxonomic classification of Holothuriidae.

Complete mitochondrial genome of a sea cucumber, Euapta godeffroyi (Echinodermata, Holothuroidea, Apodida, Synaptidae).

Project description:We determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a holothurian Euapta godeffroyi belonging to the order Apodida. The complete mitogenome of E. godeffroyi was 16,410 bp in length and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. The orders of PCGs and rRNAs did not match those of any recorded holothurian mitogenomes. The maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree placed E. godeffroyi as the sister group to chiridotid species and supported the monophyly of the order Apodida.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Stichopus variegatus (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) and phylogenetic studies of Echinodermata.

Project description:At present, there exist some confusing issues on the species classification and phylogeny in Echinodermata. In this study, we first determined and described the complete mitochondrial genome of Stichopus variegatus. The complete mitogenome sequence had a circular mapping molecular with the total length of 16,315 bp and contained 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a putative control region. To further validate the newly determined sequences, phylogenetic trees involving all the Holothuroidea and other Echinodermata species available in GenBank Database were constructed. These results would be used for the species identification and further phylogenetic studies of Echinodermata.

Comparison of the complete mitochondrial genome of Phyllophorus liuwutiensis (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea: Phyllophoridae) to that of other sea cucumbers.

Project description:Sea cucumber species are abundant (>1400 species) and widely distributed globally. mtDNA sequencing is frequently used to identify the phylogenetic and evolutionary relationships among species. However, there are no reports on the mitochondrial genome of Phyllophorus liuwutiensis. Here, we performed mtDNA sequencing of P. liuwutiensis to examine its phylogenetic relationships with other echinoderms. Its mitochondrial genome (15 969 bp) contains 37 coding genes, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes and 2 rRNA genes. Except for one protein-coding gene (nad6) and five tRNA genes encoded on the negative strand, all other genes were encoded on the positive strand. The mitochondrial bases of P. liuwutiensis were composed of 29.55% T, 22.16% C, 35.64% A and 12.64% G. The putative control region was 703 bp in length. Seven overlapping regions (1-10 bp) were found. The noncoding region between the genes ranged from 1 to 130 bp in length. One putative control region has been found in the P. liuwutiensis mitogenome. All of the tRNA genes were predicted to fold into a cloverleaf structure. In addition, we compared the gene arrangements of six echinoderms, revealing that the gene order of P. liuwutiensis was a new arrangement.
