The complete mitogenome of the Critically Endangered smalltooth sand tiger shark, Odontaspis ferox (Lamniformes: Odontaspididae)

Here, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome for the smalltooth sand tiger shark, Odontaspis ferox (Risso, 1810). The circular mitochondrial genome was found to be 16,682 bp in length and contains 37 genes, a control region and the replication origin of the L-strand (O(L)). The base compo...

description Here, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome for the smalltooth sand tiger shark, Odontaspis ferox (Risso, 1810). The circular mitochondrial genome was found to be 16,682 bp in length and contains 37 genes, a control region and the replication origin of the L-strand (O(L)). The base composition of this mitogenome is 32.6% A, 23.3% C, 12.8% G, and 31.3% T. Phylogenetic analysis of Lamniformes indicates that O. ferox did not group with Carcharias taurus and so the taxonomic classification of Odontaspididae needs to be revised. This study promotes conservation genetics for this poorly studied shark species which is listed critically endangered in the Mediterranean Sea.
