Main features of the mitogenome of Ma. balthica, based on specimen A10.
¹Nucleotide positions are indicated by the numbers separating the different mitochondrial genes. Overlapping nucleotides between adjacent genes are noticed by negative numbers.
²atp6 and nad3 genes presented specific codon for one mitogenome. Codon is indicated in brackets following by mtDNA reference.
