Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of convex reef crab Carpilius convexus (Forskal, 1775).

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome of convex reef crab Carpilius convexus was determined and characterized for the first time from the South China Sea. The whole mitogenome is 15,766 bp long and consists of 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and 1 control region. The nucleotide composition of the mitogenome is significantly biased (A, G, T, and C is 36.91%, 17.94%, 34.95%, and 10.19%, respectively) with A + T contents of 71.86%. All PCGs start with a normal initiation codon ATN and terminate with a standard stop codon except ND1 gene end with TTG. Five microsatellites are identified in C. convexus mitogenome sequences. The phylogenetic tree showed that C. convexus was first clustered with Carpilius maculatus, and strongly supports that the recognition of the Carpiliidae as a monophyletic family.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the mauve stinger jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca Forskal, 1775 (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa, Semaeostomeae) with phylogenetic analysis.

Project description:This study determined the complete mitochondrial genome of the jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca (Scyphozoa, Semaeostomeae) for the first time. The genome was a linear molecule of 16,390 bp in length and 59.3% AT. It comprised of 13 typical protein-coding genes (cox1-3, nd1-6, nd4L, atp6, atp8, and cytB), two ribosomal RNAs (16S and 12S rRNA), and two tRNAs (trnM and trnW). In addition, we detected two additional open reading frames (polB and ORF314) at one end of the genome. The gene-coding structures were identical to those of other scyphozoans. Based on a molecular phylogeny constructed using 13 protein-coding genes, P. noctiluca has the closest genetic relationship with the genus Chrysaora (Semaeostomeae).

Characterization of complete mitochondrial genome of seven-eleven crab Carpilius maculatus (Linnaeus, 1758).

Project description:In this study, we first determined and characterised the complete mitochondrial genome of seven-eleven crab Carpilius maculatus from South China Sea. The C. maculatus mitogenome is 15,761 bp long, and consists of 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and one control region. The nucleotide composition of C. maculatus mitogenome is significantly biased (A, G, T, and C was 35.9%, 9.8%, 35.5%, and 18.9%, respectively) with A + T contents of 71.3%. Three PCGs used an unusual initiation codon, and four PCGs were terminated with an uncomplete or abnormal stop codon. Six microsatellites were identified in C. maculatus mitogenome sequences. Phylogenetic tree showed that C. maculatus formed monophyletic clade with other Heterotremata species.

Characterization of complete mitochondrial genome of two-spot swimming crab Charybdis bimaculata (Miers, 1886).

Project description:The two-spot swimming crab Charybdis bimaculata (Miers, 1886) is an important decapod species in the benthic ecosystem of Korean waters. In this study, we determined its complete mitochondrial genome by the combination of NGS analysis using MiSeq platform and PCR-based cloning method. The circular mitochondrial genome of C. bimaculata was 15,714 bp in length in which the standard set of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes were encoded. Phylogenic analysis showed that C.bimaculata is most closely related to Charybdis feriata. The complete mitogenome sequence information of C. bimaculata would provide useful data for the conservation of their population in the Pacific ocean.

Characterization of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Bromeliad Crab Metopaulias depressus (Rathbun, 1896) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Sesarmidae).

Project description:Metopaulias depressus is a non-marine crab endemic to Jamaica that dwells in rainforest bromeliads and exhibits elaborate active parental care behavior. Current genomic resources on M. depressus are rare, limiting the understanding of its adaptation to terrestrial life in species that evolved from marine ancestors. This study reports the complete mitochondrial genome of M. depressus assembled using Sanger sequencing. The AT-rich mitochondrial genome of M. depressus is 15,765 bp in length and comprises 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. A single 691 bp-long intergenic space is assumed to be the control region (CR) or D-loop. A set of selective pressure analyses indicate that the entirety of the PCGs experience purifying selection. Cox1, cox2, nad5, cox3, and atp6 experience strong purifying selection, and atp8 experiences weak purifying selection compared to the rest of the PCGs. The secondary structures of most tRNA genes exhibit a standard 'cloverleaf' structure, with the exception of trnS1, which lacks the dihydroxyuridine (DHU) arm but not the loop, the trnH gene, which lacks the thymine pseudouracil cytosine (T) loop but not the arm, and trnM, which exhibits an overly developed T loop. A maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis based on all PCGs indicated that M. depressus is more closely related to the genera Clistocoeloma, Nanosesarma, and Parasesarma than to Chiromantes, Geosesarma, and Orisarma. This study contributes to deciphering the phylogenetic relationships within the family Sesarmidae and represents a new genomic resource for this iconic crab species.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome sequenced from the floral egg crab Atergatis floridus (Linnaeus, 1767) and the determination of the position of the species in the reconstructed phylogenetic tree of the infraorder Brachyura using the protein coding mitochondrial genes are presented. Results show the mitochondrial genome length of A. floridus is 16,435 bp with nucleotide distribution as 33.4% A, 20.3% C, 10.5% G and 35.8% T. The structure of the complete mitochondrial genome of the species is the same as with the previous xanthid record. The result of the phylogenetic analysis suggests that A. floridus is the closest species to other Xanthidae species in the brachyuran records. This is the first complete mitochondrial genome record from the genus Atergatis.

Genetic diversity and population structure of Terapon jarbua (Forskal, 1775) (Teleostei, Terapontidae) in Malaysian waters.

Project description:A background study is important for the conservation and stock management of a species. Terapon jarbua is a coastal Indo-Pacific species, sourced for human consumption. This study examined 134 samples from the central west and east coasts of Peninsular (West) Malaysia and East Malaysia. A 1446-bp concatenated dataset of mtDNA COI and Cyt b sequences was used in this study and 83 haplotypes were identified, of which 79 are unique haplotypes and four are shared haplotypes. Populations of T. jarbua in Malaysia are genetically heterogenous as shown by the high level of haplotype diversity ranging from 0.9167-0.9952, low nucleotide diversity ranging from 0.0288-0.3434, and high FST values (within population genetic variation). Population genetic structuring is not distinct as shown by the shared haplotypes between geographic populations and mixtures of haplotypes from different populations within the same genetic cluster. The gene flow patterns and population structuring observed among these regions are likely attributed to geographical distance, past historical events, allopatric speciation, dispersal ability and water currents. For instance, the mixture of haplotypes revealed an extraordinary migration ability of T. jarbua (>1200 km) via ancient river connectivity. The negative overall value of the neutrality test and a non-significant mismatch distribution are consistent with demographic expansion(s) in the past. The median-joining network concurred with the maximum likelihood haplotype tree with three major clades resolved. The scarcity of information on this species is an obstacle for future management and conservation purposes. Hence, this study aims to contribute information on the population structure, genetic diversity, and historical demography of T. jarbua in Malaysia.

The complete mitochondrial genome of freshwater crab Sinopotamon xiushuiense (Decapoda: brachyura: Potamoidea).

Project description:We report for the first time the complete mitochondrial genome of Sinopotamon xiushuiense, which is found to be 18,460 bp in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and 1 non-coding region known as the D-loop. In addition, the mitogenome has 18 intergenic regions ranging from 1 to 1221 bp in length. The complete mitogenome of S. xiushuiense is the longest among brachyurans reported in GenBank before November 2015, and its AT content is slightly lower than that in Geotholphusa dehaani. The mitogenome data provides a basis for further studies on population genetics and phylogenetics.

The complete mitochondrial genome of red-clawed crab Chiromantes haematochir (Sesarmidae: Grapsidae).

Project description:The complete mitogenome of Chiromantes haematocheir is 15 899 bp in length contains the typical set of 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) (ATP6, ATP8, COI-III, ND1-6, ND4L, and Cyt b), two rRNAs (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA), 22 tRNAs, and a putative CR (D-loop). All PCGs start with an ATG codon except ND1 start with ATT and ND3 start with ATA. TAA is the most frequent stop codon, although COI end with TA-, and COII stop with the single nucleotide T-. The new mtDNA sequence contains 12S rRNA and 16S rRNA of rRNAs, separated with tRNAval. All tRNAs possess the typical clover leaf secondary structure except for tRNASer(AGN) and tRNALeu(CUN), which lacks a dihydroxyuridine (DHU) arm. The CR is 826 bp in length, located between 12S rRNA and tRNAGlx. The phylogenetic trees support Chiromantes haematochir has close relative with Sesarmops sinensis and Sesarmane glectum.

Influence of climate on desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria Forskal, 1775) Plague and migration prediction in tropics.

Project description:The outbreak of the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria Forskål, 1775, which originated from the Horn of Africa in 2019-2020 created an episodic plague under bio-geographical settings in the arid and semi-arid areas of South and Southwest Asia. In India, it happened after twenty-seven years due to the persistence of a few favourable conditions caused by its plague, resulting in hundreds of crores in crop damage. Keeping this in mind, the study aims to assess the suitability and likelihood of the desert locust epidemic occurring in India, utilizing two widely recognized statistical models: Weight-of-Evidence (WoE) and Frequency Ratio (FR). This work evaluated nine critical climatic factors for the study considering western and central parts of India. The 'Projected Locust Suitability' (PLS) was calculated by analyzing the correlation of the considered variables and the occurrence of locust swarms and bands. The significance (importance) of each variable on PLS was determined using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Random Forest (RF) algorithms. The PLS maps clearly show that 42.7-52.8% of the areas fall under high and very high locust suitability zones. The result suggests that the Ajmer-Gwalior-Allahabad tract is highly prone to future locust occurrences, while the Aligarh-Bareilly-Lakhimpur tract is moderately susceptible. The effectiveness of both modelled PLS maps was determined with the help of the ROC curve. The AUC results indicate that both the WoE (0.92) and the RF (0.90) models worked remarkably well in precisely predicting PLS. The RF-based IncNodePurity analysis indicates that low to moderate temperatures in the presence of cloud cover significantly impact locust occurrence and migration. The present findings are projected to direct the development of sustainable locust management strategies utilizing proper land use policies in the tropical climate.
