Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of convex reef crab Carpilius convexus (Forskål, 1775)

The complete mitochondrial genome of convex reef crab Carpilius convexus was determined and characterized for the first time from the South China Sea. The whole mitogenome is 15,766 bp long and consists of 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and 1 control region. The nucleot...

description The complete mitochondrial genome of convex reef crab Carpilius convexus was determined and characterized for the first time from the South China Sea. The whole mitogenome is 15,766 bp long and consists of 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and 1 control region. The nucleotide composition of the mitogenome is significantly biased (A, G, T, and C is 36.91%, 17.94%, 34.95%, and 10.19%, respectively) with A + T contents of 71.86%. All PCGs start with a normal initiation codon ATN and terminate with a standard stop codon except ND1 gene end with TTG. Five microsatellites are identified in C. convexus mitogenome sequences. The phylogenetic tree showed that C. convexus was first clustered with Carpilius maculatus, and strongly supports that the recognition of the Carpiliidae as a monophyletic family.
