The control region is the only major non-coding region in the mitochondrial genome of
insects. It is heavily biased to A+ T nucleotides and seems to evolve under a strong …

Analysis of mitochondrial (mt) DNA size polymorphism in the form of variable number
tandem repeats (mtVNTRs) has become an increasingly popular methodology for …

Two novel mitochondrial gene arrangements are identified in an agamid lizard and a ranid
frog. Statistical tests incorporating phylogeny indicate a link between novel vertebrate …

We describe the complete sequence of the 16,596-nucleotide mitochondrial genome of the
zebrafish (Danio rerio); contained are 13 protein genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a …

This study examines molecular relationships across a wide range of species in the mass
spawning scleractinian coral genus Acropora. Molecular phylogenies were obtained for 28 …

The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region was amplified and directly
sequenced in two species of shrew, Crocidura russula and Sorex araneus (Insectivora …

The 17 019 bp mitochondrial genome of Triatoma dimidiata is composed of thirteen protein
coding sequences, twenty‐two tRNAs, small and large ribosomal units, and a control region …

Marine stock-enhancement programs should use information on population structure to
optimize enhancement strategies and to design and implement operations so as to protect …

Classically, Hemiptera is comprised of two suborders: Homoptera and Heteroptera.
Homoptera includes Cicadomorpha, Fulgoromorpha and Sternorrhyncha. However …

Analysis of mitochondrial DNA control region sequences from 41 species of bats
representing 11 families revealed that repeated sequence arrays near the tRNA-Pro gene …
