Abstract: In this study, we first determined and described the mitochondrial genome of Tridacna crocea, a member of the subfamily Tridacninae. The existing mitogenome of T. crocea is 19,157 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 24 tRNA genes, and 1 non-coding control region. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that T. crocea was closely related to T. squamosa. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
