摘要
We report a complete mitochondrial genome sequence for an Isospora sp. causing systemic coccidiosis in canaries, Serinus canaria. The A + T rich (65.2%) genome was 6216 bp in length and possessed 3 protein-coding genes, (COI; COIII and CytB), 19 LSU and 14 SSU rDNA fragments, including 1 newly identified putative LSU fragment. Arrangement of coding regions was identical to that of available Eimeria sp. mt genomes and start codon usage for protein-coding genes was conventional. The similar mitochondrial genome sequences and structures of Isospora and Eimeria species confirm the close relationship between these eimeriid genera of apicomplexan parasites.
