Abstract
We describe the complete mitogenomes of the black corals Alternatipathesmirabilis Opresko & Molodtsova, 2021 and Parantipatheslarix (Esper, 1790) (Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Hexacorallia, Antipatharia, Schizopathidae). The analysed specimens include the holotype of Alternatipathesmirabilis, collected from Derickson Seamount (North Pacific Ocean; Gulf of Alaska) at 4,685 m depth and a potential topotype of Parantipatheslarix, collected from Secca dei Candelieri (Mediterranean Sea; Tyrrhenian Sea; Salerno Gulf; Italy) at 131 m depth. We also assemble, annotate and make available nine additional black coral mitogenomes that were included in a recent phylogeny (Quattrini et al. 2023b), but not made easily accessible on GenBank. This is the first study to present and compare two mitogenomes from the same species of black coral (Stauropathesarctica (Lütken, 1871)) and, thus, place minimum boundaries on the expected level of intraspecific variation at the mitogenome level. We also compare interspecific variation at the mitogenome-level across five different specimens of Parantipathes Brook, 1889 (representing at least two different species) from the NE Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea.

Lee HE, Ki JS. The complete mitochondrial genome of the mauve stinger jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca Forskål, 1775 (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa, Semaeostomeae) with phylogenetic analysis. Mitochondrial DNA B Resour 2023; 8:1239-1242. [PMID: 38188449 PMCID: PMC10769544 DOI: 10.1080/23802359.2023.2281028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024] Open
Abstract
This study determined the complete mitochondrial genome of the jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca (Scyphozoa, Semaeostomeae) for the first time. The genome was a linear molecule of 16,390 bp in length and 59.3% AT. It comprised of 13 typical protein-coding genes (cox1-3, nd1-6, nd4L, atp6, atp8, and cytB), two ribosomal RNAs (16S and 12S rRNA), and two tRNAs (trnM and trnW). In addition, we detected two additional open reading frames (polB and ORF314) at one end of the genome. The gene-coding structures were identical to those of other scyphozoans. Based on a molecular phylogeny constructed using 13 protein-coding genes, P. noctiluca has the closest genetic relationship with the genus Chrysaora (Semaeostomeae).

Abstract
Mitogenomics has improved our understanding of medusozoan phylogeny. However, sequenced medusozoan mitogenomes remain scarce, and Medusozoa phylogeny studies often analyze mitogenomic sequences without incorporating mitogenome rearrangements. To better understand medusozoan evolution, we analyzed Medusozoa mitogenome phylogeny by sequencing and assembling eight mitogenomes from three classes (Cubozoa, Hydrozoa, and Scyphozoa). We reconstructed the mitogenome phylogeny using these mitogenomes and 84 other existing cnidarian mitogenomes to study mitochondrial gene rearrangements. All reconstructed mitogenomes had 13 mitochondrial protein-coding genes and two ribosomal genes typical for Medusozoa. Non-cubozoan mitogenomes were all linear and had typical gene orders, while arrangement of genes in the fragmented Cubozoa (Morbakka sp.) mitogenome differed from other Cubozoa mitogenomes. Gene order comparisons and ancestral state reconstruction suggest minimal rearrangements within medusozoan classes except for Hydrozoa. Our findings support a staurozoan ancestral medusozoan gene order, expand the pool of available medusozoan mitogenomes, and enhance our understanding of medusozoan phylogenetic relationships.
