Abstract
In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of the jellyfish Aurelia coerulea (A. coerulea). The mitochondrial genome was a linear form (16,748 bp long, 65.7% AT), consisting of 13 protein coding genes (PCGs) (cox1, cox2, atp8, atp6, cox3, nad2, nad5, nad6, nad3, nad4L, nad1, nad4, and cytB), 2 rRNAs (12S and 16S), and 2 tRNAs (trnM and trnW). Mitochondrial gene arrangement of the A. coerulea was identical when compared to already-known mitochondrial genomes of Aurelia species. The maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree using of 13 mitochondrial proteins showed that A. coerulea collected from Korea waters was closely related to A. limbata.
