MitoFinder: efficient automated large-scale extraction of mitogenomic data in target enrichment phylogenomics

Abstract: AbstractThanks to the development of high-throughput sequencing technologies, target enrichment sequencing of nuclear ultraconserved DNA elements (UCEs) now allows routinely inferring phylogenetic relationships from thousands of genomic markers. Recently, it has been shown that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is frequently sequenced alongside the targeted loci in such capture experiments. Despite its broad evolutionary interest, mtDNA is rarely assembled and used in conjunction with … Show more

“…As mitochondrial DNA is naturally enriched, sequencing reads of target‐enriched libraries typically include background mitochondrial sequences as byproducts. For example, Allio et al (2019) were able to extract COI barcodes and other mitochondrial genes from 501 hybrid‐capture libraries in ants (Formicidae), and Taucce et al (2018) assembled mitogenomes for five frog species (Anura) from hybrid‐capture libraries. Here, we show that mitochondrial genes other than COI could be recovered for all samples in this study (Figure S2).…”

“…We subsequently used a custom Python 3 script 26 to retrieve BLAST hits and did the assembly with Geneious R9 (https ://www.genei ous.com). The mtDNA of T. senegalensis was assembled using MitoFinder 27 .…”

“…For each set of raw reads, I used the associated adapter fasta file generated by initial processing with illumiprocessor (ILLUMINACLIP:adapters.fasta:2:30:10), and omitted the LEADING, TRAILING and SLIDINGWINDOW options that are used by default in illumiprocessor . I used these adapter‐cleaned reads as input for the programme mitoFinder (Allio et al ., 2020) using the mitogenome of Vollenhovia emeryi (NCBI BioProject PRJNA278668) as a reference and MetaSpades (Nurk et al ., 2017) for assembly. I used the longest contig output from mitoFinder as input for mitoBim (Hahn et al ., 2013) to extend the contig and to assess coverage depth, as viewed in Tablet (Milne et al ., 2013).…”
