The complete mitochondrial genomes of two vent squat lobsters, Munidopsis lauensis and M. verrilli: Novel gene arrangements and phylogenetic implications [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 9, Issue 22, Page 12390-12407, November 2019., 2019 The mitogenomes of M. lauensis and M. verrilli show novel arrangements of mitochondrial genes. Comparisons of mitochondrial gene rearrangements, to some extent, are a useful tool for phylogenetic studies. Abstract Hydrothermal vents are considered as one of the most extremely harsh environments on the Earth.
