The complete mitochondrial genome of Ophiura kinbergi (Ophiuroidea, Ophiurina): genome structure and phylogenetics

The length of the complete mitochondrial genome was 16,626 bp for Ophiura kinbergi, containing 35 genes similar to other known ophiuroids. The GC content was 33.35%. The gene structure was identical to known mitochondrial genomes from the species of genus Ophiura. Phylogenetic results indicated cons...

Zusammenfassung:The length of the complete mitochondrial genome was 16,626 bp for Ophiura kinbergi, containing 35 genes similar to other known ophiuroids. The GC content was 33.35%. The gene structure was identical to known mitochondrial genomes from the species of genus Ophiura. Phylogenetic results indicated conserved relationships between O. kinbergi and three other Ophiura species. These results could provide detailed information for better understanding the evolution patterns of brittle stars, especially for the genus Ophiura.
