The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the mountain crab Indochinamon bhumibol.

ABSTRACT: Indochinamon bhumibol has been found as the biggest freshwater crab in Thailand. In this study, we report the first complete sequence of mitochondrial genome from I. bhumibol encoding 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs. The nucleotide composition of I. bhumibol mitogenome showed a strong AT bias (70.4%) with a low GC content (29.6%). Comparative phylogenetic analysis with 28 crustaceans based on nine conserved genes demonstrated that I. bhumibol was closely related to members of the Potamidae family.
