Characterization of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Pleurogenoides japonicus (Digenea, Pleurogenidae): Comparison With the Members of Microphalloidea and Phylogenetic Implications. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Pleurogenoides japonicus, being the first described of the family Pleurogenidae. The gene arrangement types of Xiphidiata trematodes are diverse, and the gene arrangement events mainly occurred in “trnE‐trnG” and “trnG‐trnE”.
