Phylogeny and adaptative evolution to chemosynthetic habitat in barnacle (Cirripedia: Thoracica) revealed by mitogenomes

Thoracican barnacles represent a unique group that has evolved in parallel identical somatotype s (sessile, stalked and asymmetric) in both normal and chemosynthetic environments. Hydrothermal vents and methane seeps are typical extreme deep-sea chemosynthetic habitats for marine macrobenthos. Chara...
