Novel mitochondrial gene rearrangements pattern in the millipede Polydesmus sp. GZCS-2019 and phylogenetic analysis of the Myriapoda. [PDF]
We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Polydesmus sp. GZCS‐2019 and all genes encoded on + strand. Several genes rearrangements were detected and we propose a new rearrangement model: “TD (N\R) L + C” based on the genome‐scale duplication + (non‐random/random) loss + recombination. We combine phylogenetic analysis, divergence time, and gene
