title: The complete mitochondrial genome of Pomacea canaliculata (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae).
abstract: The mitochondrial genome of Pomacea canaliculata (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae) is the first complete mtDNA sequence reported in the genus Pomacea. The total length of mtDNA is 15,707 bp, which containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a 359 bp non-coding region. The A + T content of the overall base composition of H-strand is 71.7% (T: 41%, C: 12.7%, A: 30.7%, G: 15.6%). ATP6, ATP8, CO1, CO2, ND1-3, ND5, ND6, ND4L and Cyt b genes begin with ATG as start codon, CO3 and ND4 begin with ATA. ATP8, CO2-3, ND4L, ND2-6 and Cyt b genes are terminated with TAA as stop codon, ATP6, ND1, and CO1 end with TAG. A long non-coding region is found and a 23 bp repeat unit repeat 11 times in this region.
