The mitochondrial genome (mt-genome) is one of the promising molecular markers for phylogenetics and population genetics. Recently, various mt-genomes have been determined rapidly by using massively parallel sequencers. However, the control region (CR, also called D-loop) in mt-genomes remain difficult to precisely determine due to the presence of repeat regions. Here, using Nanopore sequencing, we succeeded in rapid and collective determination of complete mt-genome of the hot-spring frog, Buergeria japonica, and found that its mt-genome size was 22,274 bp including CR (6,929 bp) with two types of tandem repeat motifs forming repeat regions. Comparison of assembly strategies revealed that the long- and short-read data combined together enabled efficient determination of the CR, but the short-read data alone did not. The B. japonica CR was longer than that of a congenic species inhabiting cooler climate areas, Buergeria buergeri, because of the long repeat regions in the former. During the thermal adaptation of B. japonica, the longer repeat regions in its CR may have accumulated within a period after divergence from B. buergeri. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
