Complete mitochondrial genome of the marine polychaete, Nereis zonata (Phyllodocida, Nereididae) isolated from the Beaufort Sea

Here, we present the first whole mitogenome sequence of the marine polychaete, Nereis zonata, isolated from the Beaufort Sea. The mitochondrial genome of N. zonata is 15,757 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and a...

Description
Summary:Here, we present the first whole mitogenome sequence of the marine polychaete, Nereis zonata, isolated from the Beaufort Sea. The mitochondrial genome of N. zonata is 15,757 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and a non-coding region that is typical of polychaetes. GC content of the N. zonata mitogenome is 37.2%. A maximum-likelihood gene tree based on the N. zonata mitogenome combined with previously published annelid mitogenome data revealed that N. zonata is clustered with Cheilonereis cyclurus, which form a sister group to Nereis sp.
