Decoding the Mitochondrial Genome of the Tiger Shrimp: Comparative Genomics and Phylogenetic Placement Within Caridean Shrimps
This study provides the first mitogenomic framework for <i>C. mariae</i>, revealing both conserved features (e.g., PCG content) and lineage-specific innovations (e.g., tRNA truncation). The resolved phylogeny challenges traditional Caridea classifications and highlights convergent adaptation in freshwater lineages. These findings offer molecular tools for the conservation prioritization of threatened <i>Caridina</i> species and underscore the utility of mitogenomics in decapod systematics.
