“…Among them, S. undulatus is reported only infecting on common carp, Cyprinus carpio, and crucian carp, Carassius auratus, which are important economic fish species in China (Nie and Yao 2000). The first valid mitochondrial genome in the genus Sinergasilus Yin, 1949 is Sinergasilus polycolpus (Peng et al 2010;Feng et al 2015). Here, we assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of S. undulatus, which is the second reported one in this genus.…”

The total mitochondrial genome size of Sinergasilus undulatus is 14,239 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a non-coding control region (Dloop). The overall nucleotide composition of the mitochondrial DNA of S. undulatus is 34.9% A, 35.5% T, 15.7% C, 13.9% G, and 70.4% AT, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that the genus Sinergasilus is monophyletic, and S. undulatus is closely related to S. polycolpus. The complete mitochondrial genome of S. undulatus would be useful for species identification, epidemiology, and phylogenetics among Copepods.

“…A comparison with the representatives of Ergasilidae with available mitogenomes, highlighted consistency in gene order. The length of rrnL in Sinergasilus polycolpus (Feng et al, 2016) appears to be shorter compared to the other species including E. kandti (668 bp vs . 878 bp).…”

“…We conduct phylogenetic analyses of all species of Ergasilidae of which molecular data are currently available. We also provide the first ergasilid whole genome sequencing reads [but see previous studies employing Sanger sequencing to obtain complete mitochondrial genome sequences, see Feng et al (2016), He et al (2023), and Hua et al (2023)], and the first complete mitogenome sequence and ribosomal operon of any African ergasilid species.…”

Ergasilidae are a family of globally distributed copepods parasitizing freshwater fish. Despite their widespread occurrence and importance for nutrient cycles, their phylogeographic patterns are poorly understood, specifically in the African Great Lakes. Here, we aim to improve the knowledge about the species diversity of copepods infecting Tylochromis polylepis, an endemic cichlid fish species in Lake Tanganyika, and about the phylogenetic relationship of African ergasilids. We present the first record of Ergasilus kandti parasitizing the gills of T. polylepis in Lake Tanganyika proper identified through light microcopy and, for the first time for any ergasilid, confocal laser scanning microscopy. Morphological analyses showed variations in numbers of spines and setae of the swimming legs. Phylogenetic analyses based on ribosomal DNA fragments suggest two monophyletic groups of African ergasilids. However, the phylogenetic relationships of Ergasilus remain unresolved because of the insufficient resolution of these widely used phylogenetic markers. A comparison of ergasilid mitochondrial genomes highlights gene order stability and interspecific length variation in rrnL. We also provide the first complete ribosomal operon of any African ergasilid and the first whole genome sequencing reads of any ergasilid. This study presents the most extensive morphological and molecular characterization of an ergasilid species to date.
