Association of the mtDNA m.4171C>A/MT-ND1 mutation with both optic neuropathy and bilateral brainstem lesions [PDF]
Background: An increasing number of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations, mainly in complex I genes, have been associated with variably overlapping phenotypes of Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with stroke ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Bauhinia variegata (Leguminosae)
The mitogenome of Bauhinia variegate was assembled and characterized in this study. The mitogenome size was 437,271 bp, and its GC content was 45.5%. 36 protein-coding genes, 17 tRNAs and 3 rRNAs were annotated in the mitogenome.

Wide crossing diversify mitogenomes of rice [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundIn most angiosperms, the inheritance of the mitochondria takes place in a typical maternal manner. However, very less information is available about if the existence of structural variations or not in mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) between maternal parents and their progenies.ResultsIn order to find the answer, a stable rice ...

Comparative mitogenomic and phylogenetic characterization on the complete mitogenomes of Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei [PDF]
We report the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences of four Talaromyces marneffei strains and performed comparative genomic and phylogenetic analyses. The gene orders of the four mtDNAs are identical to the previously published mtDNA of strain PM1 (nad4l, nad5, nad2, atp9, cob, nad1, nad4, atp8, atp6, nad6, cox3, rps, cox1, nad3, cox2 ...

The trouble with MEAM2: Implications of pseudogenes on species delimitation in the globally invasive Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) cryptic species complex [PDF]
Molecular species identification using sub-optimal PCR primers can over-estimate species diversity due to co-amplification of nuclear mitochondrial (NUMT) DNA/pseudogenes.
