Completely sequenced organelle genomes from volvocalean green algae.

<p>Note: Values rounded to whole numbers. Clade names are based on Nakada et al. <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0057177#pone.0057177-Nakada1" target="_blank">[3]</a>. Percent coding includes all annotated protein-, rRNA-, and tRNA-coding regions as well as non-standard ORFs, such as the <i>rtl</i> gene in the <i>C. reinhardtii</i> mtDNA. Gene number includes standard protein-coding genes, but does not include intronic or nonstandard ORFs, like <i>rtl</i>. Duplicate genes and introns were counted only once. Genome statistics for <i>P. parva</i> and <i>P. piriformis</i> are based on the concatenation of the two mitochondrial chromosomes; those for <i>V. carteri</i> should be considered as approximations as the mtDNA and ptDNA contain assembly gaps due to unresolved repeats. For <i>C. reinhardtii</i>, the mitochondrial genome size, intron number, and coding content can vary because of optional introns.
