Abstract

We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of the flatworm . The species, originally described from New South Wales, Australia, has been found in various locations in the British Isles, New Zealand and in the United States of America; it is thus potentially invasive. The genome is 16513 bp long, encodes for 12 protein coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and 20 tRNA genes, and is completely colinear with the other two available Rhynchodeminae. In addition, it shares with them some unusual characters discriminating them from members of the other subfamilies of Geoplanidae, the most noticeable being the extra length of its gene. The data allow a reliable multigene phylogeny to be derived, and also provide a means of accurate biomonitoring of possible invasiveness by .

摘要

我们对扁形虫的完整线粒体基因组进行了测序。该物种最初是在澳大利亚新南威尔士州被描述的，现已在不列颠群岛、新西兰和美利坚合众国的不同地点被发现；因此它具有潜在的入侵性。该基因组长度为16513碱基对，编码12个蛋白质编码基因、两个核糖体RNA基因和20个tRNA基因，并且与其他两个已有的吻蛭亚科完全共线。此外，它与它们共享一些将它们与陆蛭科其他亚科成员区分开来的不寻常特征，最显著的是其基因的额外长度。这些数据使得能够得出可靠的多基因系统发育关系，并且还提供了一种对可能的入侵性进行准确生物监测的方法。
