The complete mitochondrial genome of the causative agent of the human cercarial dermatitis, the visceral bird schistosome species Trichobilharzia szidati (platyhelminthes: Trematoda: Schistosomatidae)

We report the first complete mitochondrial genome of visceral bird schistosome Trichobilharzia szidati (Platyhelminthes, Trematoda: Schistosomatidae). The circular genome is 14293 bp in length and contains 12 protein-coding genes, 12S and 16S rRNAs genes, 22 tRNAs and one non-coding region (202 bp)...

Sumario:We report the first complete mitochondrial genome of visceral bird schistosome Trichobilharzia szidati (Platyhelminthes, Trematoda: Schistosomatidae). The circular genome is 14293 bp in length and contains 12 protein-coding genes, 12S and 16S rRNAs genes, 22 tRNAs and one non-coding region (202 bp) (accession number MF136777). Phylogenetic relationships based on 12 protein-coding gene sequences (PCG) of mitogenomes of a number of trematode and cestode species have shown that T. szidati is the closest genetic relative to nasal bird schistosome T. regenti. The complete mitogenome sequence of T. szidati may serve as a resource for comparative mitogenomics and trematode evolution studies.
