@misc{10498/34256, year = {2024}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10498/34256}, abstract = {Here, we present the mitochondrial sequences of two sea slugs (Heterobranchia): Runcina aurata and Facelina auriculata, the latter being the type species of the family. The mitochondrial genomes are 14,282 and 14,171bp in length, respectively, with a complete set of 13 PCGs, 2 rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs. None of the mitogenomes show gene reorganization, keeping the standard mitogenomic structure of Heterobranchia. Nucleotide composition differs significantly between them, with R. aurata showing the most AT-rich mitogenome (25.7% GC content) reported to date in Heterobranchia, and F. auriculata showing a rich GC content (35%) compared with other heterobranch mitochondrial genomes.}, publisher = {Taylor & Francis}, keywords = {Mitochondrial genome}, keywords = {phylogenomics}, keywords = {neglected taxa}, keywords = {type taxon}, keywords = {systematics}, keywords = {GC content}, keywords = {specific primer design}, title = {New mitogenomes of Runcinidae and Facelinidae: two understudied heterobranch families (Mollusca: Gastropoda)}, doi = {10.1080/23802359.2024.2363365}, author = {Galià-Camps, Carles and Araujo Moreira, Ana Karla and Carmona Barnosi, Leila and Martín-Hervás Santos, María del Rosario and Pola, Marta and Palero, F. and Cervera Currado, Juan Lucas}, }
