Figure 1.
Maps of the mitochondrial genomes of C. sowerbyi and C. aphrodite.
Protein and ribosomal genes (large open boxes) are abbreviated as presented in the text; tRNA genes (small hatched boxes) are identified by the one-letter code for their corresponding amino acid. Intergenic regions greater than 100 bp are shown by shaded boxes; ITR shown by two large arrows. Arrows within or under each box show the direction of transcription. Positive numbers at gene boundaries indicate the number of intergenic nucleotides; negative numbers indicate the number of overlapping nucleotides. The dash lines mean that the sequence of this part is not determined.

Phylogenetic analyses by ML methods based on mitochondrial inferred amino acid data.
ML tree obtained from the analysis of inferred amino acids of 13 energy pathway protein genes under the MTMAM model. The branch support values for each node are shown as ML bootstrap percentage. Scale bars indicate number of changes per site.
