Research Abstract |
Genome analyses of nucleus and mitochondria in ancestral dinoflagellates were carried out. Phylogenetic analyses using 2 available protein-coding genes showed that Noctiluca synthillans is the next earliest branch after Oxyrrhis marina. On the other hand, mitochondrial genome analysis of O.marina revealed several peculiar natures of mtDNA. Oxyrrhis mtDNA consists of various kinds of minicircle with the sizes of~some kb and total number of genes encoded is only 4.
