Sequencing and analysis of the complete mitogenome of Doriprismatica atromarginata (Cuvier, 1804)

Abstract

Doriprismatica atromarginata is a common nudibranch in the tropical and sub-tropical Indo-Pacific region. In this study, the complete mitogenome of D. atromarginata from Vietnam was recorded for the first time. The circular mitogenome had a size of 14,421 bp and consisted of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes). Phylogenetic tree based on amino acid sequences of coding genes demonstrated that D. atromarginata has sister group relationship with the genus Chromodoris.
