DOI: 10.1016/j.ympev.2017.12.013
Abstract: The mitochondrial genome architecture of polyplacophorans has been usually regarded as being very ancient in comparison to all mollusks. However, even if some complete chiton mtDNAs have been recently sequenced, thorough studies of their evolution… read more here.

DOI: 10.12688/f1000research.121706.1
Abstract: Mollusca is the second most species-rich phylum and includes animals as disparate as octopuses, clams, and chitons. Dozens of molluscan genomes are available, but only one representative of the subphylum Aculifera, the sister taxon to… read more here.
