The mitochondrial genome of Gyrodactylus salaris (Platyhelminthes : Monogenea), a pathogen of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
In the present study, we describe the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of the Atlantic salmon parasite Gyrodactylus salaris, the first for any monogenean species. The circular genome is 14 790 bp in size. All of the 3 5 genes recognized from other flatworm mitochondrial genomes were identified, an...
