Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of the polychaete, Melinna cristata.


ABSTRACT: In this study, we report the complete mitogenome sequence of the polychaete, Melinna cristata (Sars, 1851). The circular M. cristata mitochondrial genome is 15,696 bp in length and has an AT content of 66%. As in other polychaetes, the genome has 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a non-coding region. Gene composition and their order in the M. cristata mitochondrion are identical to the Terebelliformia mitogenomes. A maximum-likelihood gene tree based on the M. cristata mitogenome combined with previously published Sedentaria and Errantia mitogenomes revealed that M. cristata forms a clade with two Terebelliformia species.
