PhyloRef: A Semi‐Automated Workflow for eDNA Reference Database Curation via Phylogenetic Anomaly Detection

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
PhyloRef processes complete mitochondrial genomes with optional multi‐gene concatenation to flag three categories of phylogenetic anomalies based on tree topology and annotates ambiguous sequences with “similar_to=” labels. The workflow successfully curated 7600+ chondrichthyan and actinopterygian sequences from NCBI, identifying and removing 410 ...

Different mitogenomic codon usage patterns between damselflies and dragonflies and nine complete mitogenomes for odonates [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractDamselflies and dragonflies, of the order Odonata, have distinct body plans and predatory abilities. Knowledge of their various evolutionary histories will allow for an understanding of the genetic and phenotypic evolution of insects. Mitogenomes are suitable materials to elucidate this, but the mitogenome of only a few odonates have been ...

Mitochondrial genomes of the key zooplankton copepods Arctic Calanus glacialis and North Atlantic Calanus finmarchicus with the longest crustacean non-coding regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We determined the nearly complete mitochondrial genomes of the Arctic Calanus glacialis and its North Atlantic sibling Calanus finmarchicus, which are key zooplankton components in marine ecosystems. The sequenced part of C.

Genomic Divergence Between Octopus vulgaris and Its Undescribed Sister Species From the South Atlantic and Indian Ocean

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Octopus vulgaris Type III — an undescribed Southern Hemisphere lineage occurring along the South African coast and Amsterdam Island — is genomically distinct from O. vulgaris sensu stricto and O. sinensis, as inferred from phylogenetic analyses of 338 nuclear loci and complete mitochondrial genomes, supporting the need for taxonomic re‐evaluation of ...

Mitogenomic Characterization and Phylogenetic Expansion of Tribe Coccinellini (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents the complete mitochondrial genomes of nine ladybird species from the tribe Coccinellini and compares them with 58 previously published mitogenomes. Phylogenetic analyses confirm the taxonomic placement of these species within Coccinellini.

An ‛Aukward' Tale: A Genetic Approach to Discover the Whereabouts of the Last Great Auks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
One hundred and seventy-three years ago, the last two Great Auks, Pinguinusimpennis, ever reliably seen were killed. Their internal organs can be found in the collections of the Natural History Museum of Denmark, but the location of their skins has ...

Mitogenomic and Metabarcoding Resources for the Study and Conservation of Keystone Neotropical Raptors

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We characterized complete mitochondrial genomes for nine keystone Neotropical raptors, including four threatened and five near‐threatened species, providing essential resources for phylogenetic and conservation studies. We also developed metabarcoding primers, enabling non‐invasive monitoring of Neotropical raptors via environmental DNA.

A new perspective on phylogeny and evolution of tetraodontiform fishes (Pisces: Acanthopterygii) based on whole mitochondrial genome sequences: Basal ecological diversification? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background The order Tetraodontiformes consists of approximately 429 species of fishes in nine families. Members of the order exhibit striking morphological diversity and radiated into various habitats such as freshwater, brackish and coastal waters ...

Mining for Mitochondria: 68 Mitogenomes for Wrasses and Parrotfishes (F: Labridae) From Off‐Target UCE Data

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
By leveraging off‐target reads from a target‐capture UCE dataset, we assembled and annotated complete mitogenomes for 68 species of wrasses and parrotfishes (Family: Labridae), 54 of which are novel to the NCBI. This increases the taxonomic coverage of reference labrid mitogenomes from less than 5% and 12% to almost 13% and 20% of the family on NCBI's ...
