Mitochondrial Genome of Cossura pygodactylata from the White Sea

20,713 base pairs comprise the complete mitochondrial genome of the annelid Cossura pygodactylata. The genome includes two ribosomal RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, 24 tRNAs, and a long AT-rich non-coding region. Authored by Margarita Ezhova and last updated in May 2026, this data supports phylogenetic analysis within Cirratuliformia.

Use Cases

• Conducting phylogenetic analysis based on the 13 protein-coding genes
• Comparing mitochondrial gene order evolution based on tRNA arrangement differences
• Studying genetic features of marine annelids based on the reported genome sequence

Strengths

• Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of 20,713 base pairs
• Includes a standard set of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and 24 tRNAs
• Directly comparable to the previously reported genome of Cossura aciculata

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
