The marine red alga, , is economically significant for its agar production and pharmacologically active compounds. This study reveals its complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome), sequenced using Illumina's next-generation technology. The mitogenome is a 25,909 bp circular molecule with a G + C content of 27.21%, comprising 24 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 24 transfer RNA genes, and one open reading frame (ORF) with an unidentified function. Both gene structure and composition are highly conserved within . The phylogenetic analyses fully support a close relationship of with other species, as well as its sister relationship with . This mitogenome sequencing effort of provides crucial data for future phylogenetic research on marine red algae.
海洋红藻，因其琼脂生产和药理活性化合物而具有重要的经济意义。本研究揭示了其完整的线粒体基因组（线粒体基因组），该基因组是使用Illumina的下一代技术进行测序的。线粒体基因组是一个25,909 bp的环状分子，G + C含量为27.21%，包含24个蛋白质编码基因、两个核糖体RNA基因、24个转运RNA基因和一个功能未知的开放阅读框（ORF）。在该红藻内部，基因结构和组成都高度保守。系统发育分析充分支持该红藻与其他红藻物种的密切关系，以及它与另一红藻的姐妹关系。对该红藻的线粒体基因组测序工作为未来海洋红藻的系统发育研究提供了关键数据。
