In this study, we present the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the giant clam . The total length of the mitogenome is 16,404 bp. It contains the typical mitochondrial genomic structure, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region (D-loop). Mitogenome base composition is biased toward A + T content, at 66.4%. A phylogenetic tree based on complete mitogenome sequences revealed that, is the closest extant relative of .
在本研究中，我们展示了巨蛤的首个完整线粒体基因组序列。该线粒体基因组全长16,404 bp。它包含典型的线粒体基因组结构，包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因和1个控制区（D环）。线粒体基因组碱基组成偏向于A+T含量，为66.4%。基于完整线粒体基因组序列构建的系统发育树显示， 是 现存最近的亲缘物种。
