Genomic data for phylogeny of tube-dwelling worms (Sabellida): mitogenomes, rRNA genes, and raw reads
This project provides an integrated genomic dataset to resolve the evolutionary relationships within Sabellida, an order of tube-dwelling polychaete worms with ecological and evolutionary importance. By sequencing and assembling complete mitochondrial genomes alongside the nuclear 18S and 28S rRNA genes from multiple sabellid taxa, we aim to generate a robust, multi-locus phylogenetic framework. The inclusion of both mitochondrial and nuclear markers is designed to overcome limitations of single-gene studies and to clarify deep nodal relationships as well as recent diversification events within the group. All underlying raw sequencing reads are also provided to ensure reproducibility and to enable future meta-genomic or comparative analyses. This comprehensive resource will support broader investigations into polychaete evolution, mitochondrial genome architecture, and marine biodiversity.
