Abstract
The complete mitochondrial and plastid genomes of the microalga Pavlova lutheri strain NIVA-4/92 are reported. The circular-mapping mitogenome is 36,202 bp in length, contains 22 protein-coding genes, 24 tRNAs, and has a GC content of 37.5%. Like other haptophytes the mitogenome contains a single large, complex repeat region of approximately 5.4 kbp. The plastome is 95,281 bp in length and has a GC content of 35.6%. It contains 111 protein-coding genes and 27 tRNAs.
Highlights
The microalga Pavlova (Pavlovophyceae) is a rich source of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids
The Pavlovophyceae comprises a group of four genera and at least 13 characterized species that typically branch some genetic distance from other haptophytes (Liu et al 2009; Bendif et al 2011)
NIVA-4/92, which is available from the Norwegian Culture Collection of Algae (NORCCA) and reportedly originates from Oslofjord, Norway (59210N,10330E)
