Complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of the sea cicada Blepharipoda liberata Shen, 1949 (Malacostraca: Decapoda) from Shandong, China
Abstrak
Blepharipoda liberata Shen, 1949, is a distinctive benthic crustacean found in the low tidal zone of the beach in Rizhao, Shandong, China. This study presents the first record of the complete mitochondrial genome of B. liberata. The mitochondrial genome was found to be 15,766 base pairs in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. The overall nucleotide composition was characterized by A 38.18%, T 35.94%, C 15.44%, and G 10.43%, with a high A + T content of 74.12%. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that B. liberata is closely related to other species within the Hippoidea family. This research marks the first acquisition of the complete mitochondrial genome of B. liberata, thereby providing valuable insights for future studies focused on the conservation and management of this species.
