Abstract
In this study, the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Holothuria fuscocinerea was unraveled to be 15,890 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes. The PCGs were initiated by four initiation codons (ATG, TAC, ATC, and ATA). Only one PCG (nad6) and five tRNA genes (tRNASer(UCN) , tRNAGln , tRNAAla , tRNAVal, and tRNAAsp ) were encoded on the light chain, and the other genes were encoded on the heavy chain. A phylogenetic tree constructed with 16S rRNA sequences showed that H. fuscocinerea is most closely related to H. leucospilota.Entities:
