The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Desis martensi (Araneae: Desidae).

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Desis martensi (L. Koch, 1872) was reported. In this study, we sequenced, assembled and annotated the mitochondrial genome of Desis martensi using next-generation sequencing (NGS). The sequence was 14,662 base pairs (bp) in length and consisted of 37 mitochondrial genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNA genes). The overall base composition of the genome showed slightly A + T bias, AT content (77.2%) higher than GC content (22.9%). The phylogenetic analyses based on 13 protein-coding genes indicated that the family Desidae belonged to the Retrolateral Tibial Apophysis (RTA) clade in Araneae.
