| Popis: | The Devil Ray (Mobula thurstoni) is a species with global distribution and is an important species in conservation terms, here we present its complete mitochondrial genome assembled with Illumina sequencing data. The circular genome was 17,610 bp in length, and consists of 13 protein-coding, two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. Base composition is 30.7% A, 29.1% T, 26.5% C, and 13.7% G, and 40.2% GC content. Protein-coding genes present two start codon (ATG and GUG) and seven stop codon (UAA, AUA, UUU, UUA, AAU, CCU, and UAG). The control region possesses the highest A + T (66.6%) content among all mitochondrial regions. These data would contribute to the evolutionary studies of this genus, where there has been recent reclassification. |
