The first complete mitochondrial genome of macroparasite Crassicauda magna (Nematoda: Spirurida) from Neophocoena sunameri in ningbo, China

Members of the genus Crassicauda (Nematoda: Spirurida) are macroparasites infect the body tissues of whales and dolphins. However, limited information is available on morphological descriptions and phylogenetic studies of the worms. In present study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome...

Sumario:Members of the genus Crassicauda (Nematoda: Spirurida) are macroparasites infect the body tissues of whales and dolphins. However, limited information is available on morphological descriptions and phylogenetic studies of the worms. In present study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of Crassicauda magna from Neophocoena sunameri in Ningbo, Zhejiang Provence, China. The mitogenome has 13,605 base pairs (74.97% A + T content) and is made up of a total of 36 genes (12 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs). This study will provide useful molecular information for addressing taxonomic and evolutionary issues in Crassicauda sp..
