The complete mitochondrial genome of the widespread and common Indo-Pacific sea star has been sequenced in this study. The mitogenome is 16,230 base pairs (bp) in length, with 13 protein coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs and 2 rRNAs. Gene order of its PCGs and rRNAs matches those of nine other asteroid taxa included for comparison in this study, and it has a similar nucleotide composition of 33.08% A, 26.38% T, 25.53% C and 15.01% G nucleotides. Phylogenetic analyses place as the sister group to spp., consistent with previous inferences.
在本研究中,已对广泛分布且常见的印度-太平洋海星的完整线粒体基因组进行了测序。该线粒体基因组长度为16230个碱基对(bp),包含13个蛋白质编码基因(PCGs)、22个tRNA和2个rRNA。其PCGs和rRNAs的基因顺序与本研究中用于比较的其他9个小行星类群相匹配,并且其核苷酸组成相似,其中腺嘌呤(A)占33.08%,胸腺嘧啶(T)占26.38%,胞嘧啶(C)占25.53%,鸟嘌呤(G)占15.01%。系统发育分析将其置于与 spp. 的姐妹群位置,这与之前的推断一致。
