Comparative mitochondrial genomics among Spirometra (Cestoda: Diphyllobothriidae) and the molecular phylogeny of related tapeworms

TL;DR: The mt genomes of S. erinaceieuropaei will serve as a useful dataset for studying the genetics and systematics of the species of Spirometra genus in particular and diphyllobothriid tapeworms in general.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adaptive Radiation of the Flukes of the Family Fasciolidae Inferred from Genome-Wide Comparisons of Key Species.

TL;DR: Novel insights are provided about the genome evolution of these important pathogens, genomic resources are generated to enable development of improved interventions and diagnosis, and a solid foundation for genomic epidemiology to trace drug resistance and to aid surveillance is laid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complete mitochondrial and rDNA complex sequences of important vector species of Biomphalaria, obligatory hosts of the human-infecting blood fluke, Schistosoma mansoni.

TL;DR: The authors' analyses reveal that the two taxa inhabiting Lake Victoria, B. sudanica and B. choanomphala, are very similar to one another relative to the similarity either shows to B. pfeifferi or B. glabrata.
Journal ArticleDOI

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paragonimus ohirai (Paragonimidae: Trematoda: Platyhelminthes) and its comparison with P. westermani congeners and other trematodes.

TL;DR: A phylogenetic tree inferred from concatenated mitochondrial protein sequences of 50 strains encompassing 42 species of trematodes belonging to 14 families identified a monophyletic Paragonimidae in the class Trematoda.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic analysis provides insights into the evolution of Asian fireflies and adult bioluminescence.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the common ancestor of Lampyridae possessed adult bioluminescence, with a higher loss rate than gain rate of biolumeinescence during its lineage evolution, and inferred the evolutionary pattern of adult b Bioluminescent in Lampyrids based on the phylogenies of 166 and 144 species.

Basic Local Alignment Search Tool

TL;DR: A new approach to rapid sequence comparison, basic local alignment search tool (BLAST), directly approximates alignments that optimize a measure of local similarity, the maximal segment pair (MSP) score.
Journal ArticleDOI

tRNAscan-SE: a program for improved detection of transfer RNA genes in genomic sequence.

TL;DR: A program is described, tRNAscan-SE, which identifies 99-100% of transfer RNA genes in DNA sequence while giving less than one false positive per 15 gigabases.

NCBI Reference Sequence (RefSeq): a curated non-redundant sequence database of genomes, transcripts and proteins

TL;DR: The National Center for Biotechnology Information Reference Sequence (RefSeq) database provides a non-redundant collection of sequences representing genomic data, transcripts and proteins that pragmatically includes sequence data that are currently publicly available in the archival databases.

Biopython: freely available Python tools for computational molecular biology and bioinformatics

TL;DR: Biopython includes modules for reading and writing different sequence file formats and multiple sequence alignments, dealing with 3D macro molecular structures, interacting with common tools such as BLAST, ClustalW and EMBOSS, accessing key online databases, as well as providing numerical methods for statistical learning.

Automatic annotation of organellar genomes with DOGMA

TL;DR: The Dual Organellar GenoMe Annotator (DOGMA) automates the annotation of organellar genomes and allows the use of BLAST searches against a custom database, and conservation of basepairing in the secondary structure of animal mitochondrial tRNAs to identify and annotate genes.
