The phylogenomic position of the smalleye whip ray Himantura microphthalma (Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae) inferred from the mitochondrial genome

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the smalleye whip ray Himantura microphthalma was first determined. The total length of the complete mitogenome is 17,636 bp, consisted of 37 genes with a typical gene order in vertebrate mitogenome. A total of 63 bp short intergenic spaces and 25 ...

Sumario:In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the smalleye whip ray Himantura microphthalma was first determined. The total length of the complete mitogenome is 17,636 bp, consisted of 37 genes with a typical gene order in vertebrate mitogenome. A total of 63 bp short intergenic spaces and 25 bp overlaps were found between 17 and 6 gene junctions. The overall base composition is 31.2% A, 29.2% T, 26.4% C, and 13.2% G. Two start codons (GTG and ATG) as well as two stop codons (TAG and TAA/T) were used in protein-coding genes. The phylogenetic result suggests that H. microphthalma should be assigned to the genus Dasyatis.
