The mitochondrial genome of Lepas australis (Crustacea: Maxillopoda: Cirripedia)
The complete mitochondrial genome sequence (15,502 nt) of Lepas australis (Crustacea, Maxillopoda, Cirripedia) was determinated. L. australis was collected from Marian Cove near King Sejong station in Antarctica. It consists of the usual 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region (444 nt). To analyze the mitogenome of the cirriped, we obtained the sequences of CO1, 12S, 16S, CO3 and Cytb using universal primers newly designed in our group and then, amplified the complete mitogenome of using long-PCR by specific primers and genome walking techniques. Mitochondrial genomes contain the most informative sequences and gene arrangement for deeper phylogenetic analyses and they reflect evolutionary relationships and biogeography in the metazoans. We analyzed mitochondrial genome of the Antarctic cirriped L. australis.
