Pervasive mitochondrial tRNA gene loss in the clade B of haplosclerid sponges (Porifera, Demospongiae).

D. V. Lavrov, T. L. Turner, J. Vicente

The paper shows that Clade B of Haplosclerid Sponges (CBHS) exhibit widespread loss of mitochondrial tRNA genes, contrasting with the stable gene content seen in most bilaterian animals.

Acanthella acuta Mitochondrial DNA: Linear Architecture and Other Unique Features

M. Ahmed, E. Kayal, D. V. Lavrov

This paper describes the unique linear mitochondrial DNA architecture of Acanthella acuta, including inverted terminal repeats, group II introns, and novel ORFs, and suggests horizontal transfer for some features.

Phylomitogenomics bolsters the high-level classification of Demospongiae (phylum Porifera)

D. V. Lavrov, C. Diaz, M. Maldonado, C. Morrow, T. Perez, S. A. Pomponi, R. W. Thucker

This study uses mitochondrial genome data to test and refine the classification of Demospongiae, supporting existing groupings and adding temporal resolution to phylogenetic relationships.

Transcriptome sequencing and delimitation of cryptic Oscarella species (O. carmela and O. pearsei sp. nov) from California, USA.

A. Ereskovsky, D. J. Richter, D. V. Lavrov, K. J. Schippers, S. A. Nichols

The paper describes a new sponge species, Oscarella pearsei, and redescribes Oscarella carmela, using transcriptome and mitochondrial data to distinguish them from each other and clarify their phylogenetic relationships.
