Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Sep;27(5):3733-4. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2015.1079880. Epub 2015 Sep 24.

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial sequence (37 657 bp) of the Saccharina sp. ye-C6 was obtained from the assembled and annotated genome data sequenced by Illumina sequencing technology (KT271760). The circular genome contains 38 protein-coding genes (PCG), three ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and 25 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. Base composition of genome is A (28.41%), T (36.29%), C (14.72%), and G (20.58%). Through a phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial genomes of brown algae, we found that Saccharina sp. ye-C6 and Saccharina japonica are the most closely related species and strongly supports their close phylogenetic affinity.

Keywords: Complete mitochondrial genome; Illumina sequencing, Saccharina sp. ye-C6.
