-For comparison, the mitochondrion size of the closest related molluscs that have mitochondrion assemblies are 14,100bp (grove snail - //Cepaea nemoralis//​) and 14,130bp (land snail - //Albinaria coerulea//)+For comparison, the mitochondrion size of the closest related molluscs that have mitochondrion assemblies are 14,100bp (grove snail - //Cepaea nemoralis//​) and 14,130bp (land snail - //Albinaria coerulea//). But there are mollusk mitochondrial genomes that are much larger: sea scallop //​Plactopecten magellanicus//​ is reported to have 30.6-30.7kbp ([[http://​link.springer.com/​article/​10.1007/​s00239-007-9016-x#​page-1|David R.

 It looks as though the majority of the mitochondrion is in two contigs in the assembly using both the SW018 and SW019 assemblies. One of these contigs is 12,884bp and the other (which is the second largest contig) is 3,​425bp. ​ It looks as though the majority of the mitochondrion is in two contigs in the assembly using both the SW018 and SW019 assemblies.
