Rearrangement and evolution of mitochondrial genomes in parrots.
Mitochondrial genome rearrangements that result in control region duplication have been described for a variety of birds, but the mechanisms leading to their appearance and maintenance remain unclear, and their effect on sequence evolution has not been explored. A recent survey of mitochondrial genomes in the Psittaciformes (parrots) found that control region duplications have arisen independen...
متن کاملEvolution of the Mitochondrial Genomes of Gall Midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae): Rearrangement and Severe Truncation of tRNA Genes
We determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequences of two species of gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), as well as partial sequence from a third cecidomyiid and a species from a related family, the Sciaridae. The sciarid sequence has a number of rearrangements of tRNA genes, relative to other dipterans, but is otherwise unremarkable. In contrast, the cecidomyiid genomes possess a numb...
متن کاملRates of gene rearrangement and nucleotide substitution are correlated in the mitochondrial genomes of insects.
A number of studies indicated that lineages of animals with high rates of mitochondrial (mt) gene rearrangement might have high rates of mt nucleotide substitution. We chose the hemipteroid assemblage and the Insecta to test the idea that rates of mt gene rearrangement and mt nucleotide substitution are correlated. For this purpose, we sequenced the mt genome of a lepidopsocid from the Psocopte...

متن کاملEvidence for strong co-evolution of mitochondrial and somatic genomes
We studied a relations between the triplet frequency composition of mitochondria genomes, and the phylogeny of their bearers. First, the clusters in 63dimensional space were developed due to K-means. Second, the clade composition of those clusters has been studied. It was found that genomes are distributed among the clusters very regularly, with strong correlation to taxonomy. Strong co-evoluti...
