title: The complete mitochondrial genome of the cold-adapted fungus Pseudogymnoascus pannorum syn. Geomyces pannorum.
abstract: In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of a cold-adapted fungus, Pseudogymnoascus pannorum (=Geomyces pannorum), was sequenced. Its mitochondrial genome is 26,918 bp in length and consists of 13 standard protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA subunits and 27 transfer RNAs. The atp9 gene is absent from the mitochondrial DNA of P. pannorum. The mere intron present in the mitochondrial genome of P. pannorum is found within the rnl gene, and this group-IA intron carries an intronic ORF encoding for ribosomal protein S3. Phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated protein sequences support P. pannorum as a Leotiomycetes species, but its taxonomic resolution at the order level needs to be refined when additional mitochondrial genome data are available.
