Mitogenomic characterization and phylogenetic positioning of <i>Acropora lutkeni</i> (Scleractinia, Acroporidae)
The complete mitochondrial genome of <i>Acropora lutkeni</i> (Crossland, 1952) (18,480 bp) was assembled and annotated using high-throughput sequencing, revealing 13 PCGs, 2 tRNAs, and 2 rRNAs with AT bias and strand-specific distribution. This study enriches genomic resources and supports research on genetic variation, taxonomy, and evolution within <i>Acropora.</i>
