A complete 16,059 bp mitochondrion of B. paludosa was sequenced and assembled with the Illumina next generation sequencing platform. The B. paludosa mitogenome contains 13 PCGs, 22 tRNAs and 2 rRNA genes that are commonly observed in most metazoans and shows the conserved gene arrangement pattern of Anostraca. Our results of the phylogenomic analysis are consistent with the previous phylogenetic relationship, based on nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA. The B. paludosa mitogenome will be useful for understanding the geographical distribution and phylogenetic relationship of anostracans.

The mitogenome of B. gaini is circular at 15,536 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 23 tRNAs, two rRNAs and two major non-coding regions. In particular, there are two tRNAGly genes and one non-coding region between these two tRNAGly genes. A phylogenetic tree was constructed using concatenated amino acid sequences of 13 protein-coding genes. It reveals that B. gaini is clustered with the Anostraca group within the Branchiopoda clade. This study helps us understand the evolution of Anostraca.

The mitochondrial cytochrome <i>c</i> oxidase subunit 1 (<i>CO1</i>) gene has been used to discriminate metazoan species and has also been applied for some groups in the phylum Ciliophora. However, it is difficult to produce a universal primer as a standard barcode, because unlike metazoans, mitochondrial DNA sequences of ciliates are long and highly variable. Therefore, to design the new primer set, we sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of two pseudokeronopsids in the class Spirotrichea using next-generation sequencing technology (HiSeq™ 2000). Based on putative <i>CO1</i> gene fragments of the pseudokeronopsids, we designed the new primer set and successfully sequenced the <i>CO1</i> of 69 populations representing 47 species (five orders, 14 families, and 27 ge...

However, despite the significance of Artemia, genomic research remains incomplete and knowledge on its genomic characteristics is insufficient. In particular, Artemia franciscana of North America has been widely used in fisheries of other continents, resulting in invasion of native species. Therefore, studies on population genetics and molecular marker development as well as morphological analyses are required to investigate its population structure and to discriminate closely related species. Here, we used the Illumina Hi-Seq platform to estimate the genomic characteristics of A. franciscana through genome survey sequencing (GSS). Further, simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were identified for microsatellite marker development.
