Abstract
The first data on a whole mitochondrial genome of Haploporidae, Parasaccocoelium mugili (Digenea: Haploporata: Haploporidae) was generated using the next-generation sequencing (NGS) approach. We sequenced the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and ribosomal operon of Parasaccocoelium mugili, intestine parasite of mullet fish. The mtDNA of P. mugili contained 14,021 bp, including 12 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal genes, 22 tRNA genes, and non-coding region. The ribosomal operon of P. mugili was 8308 bp in length, including 18S rRNA gene (1981 bp), ITS1 rDNA (955 bp), 5.8S rRNA gene (157 bp), ITS2 rDNA (268 bp), 28S rRNA gene (4180 bp), and ETS (767 bp). We used the mtDNA protein-coding regions to make phylogenetic reconstructions of Haploporidae. Additionally, we performed the sequence cluster analysis based on codon usage bias of most of currently available mitochondrial genome data for trematodes. The observed gene arrangement in mtDNA sequence of P. mugili is identical to those of Plagiorchis maculosus (Rudolphi, 1802). Results of maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis showed that P. mugili was closely related to Paragonimus species from the suborder Xiphidiata. The results of sequence cluster analysis based on codon usage bias showed that P. mugili has the highest similarity with Plagiorchis maculosus (Xiphidiata). Our results do not contradict to proposing a new suborder for Haploporoidea–Haploporata. On the basis of obtained results, the relationship between mitochondrial protein-coding gene rearrangements and synonymous nucleotide substitutions in mitochondrial genomes has been suggested.
