The complete mitochondrial genome of Haliotis laevigata (Gastropoda: Haliotidae) using MiSeq and HiSeq sequencing

Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016;27(1):437-8. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2014.900611. Epub 2014 Mar 24.

Abstract

The mitochondrial genome of greenlip abalone, Haliotis laevigata, is reported. MiSeq and HiSeq sequencing of one individual was assembled to yield a single 16,545 bp contig. The sequence shares 92% identity to the H. rubra mitochondrial genome (a closely related species that hybridize with H. laevigata in the wild). The sequence will be useful for determining the maternal contribution to hybrid populations, for investigating population structure and stock-enhancement effectiveness.

Keywords: Complete mitochondrial genome; Haliotis laevigata; greenlip abalone; massive parallel sequencing.
