In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the whole mitochondrial genome of Miers, 1880 (Decapoda, Grapsidae). The circular genome is 15,587 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, as well as a control region. Both / and / share 7 nucleotides in their adjacent overlapping region, which is identical to those observed in other Grapsidae crabs. The genome composition and gene order follow a classic crab-type arrangement regulation. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that Grapsidae crabs formed a solid monophyletic group. The newly described mitochondrial genome may provide genetic marker for studies on phylogeny of the grapsid crabs.
在本研究中,我们对1880年的米尔斯(十足目,方蟹科)的整个线粒体基因组进行了测序和分析。该环状基因组长度为15,587 bp,由13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因以及一个控制区组成。两者在其相邻重叠区域共享7个核苷酸,这与在其他方蟹科螃蟹中观察到的核苷酸相同。基因组组成和基因顺序遵循经典的蟹型排列规则。系统发育分析表明,方蟹科螃蟹形成了一个坚实的单系类群。新描述的线粒体基因组可能为方蟹科螃蟹的系统发育研究提供遗传标记。
