Maximum Likelihood phylogeny of 15 species of Branchiopoda with one species of Cephalocarida as an outgroup analysed with the concatenated nucleotide sequences of 13 PCGs and 2 rRNAs. Numbers on the branches indicate ML bootstrap percentages (100 replicates). The black arrow indicates the B. paludosa analysed in this study. A schematic diagram for the partial genomic structure of each mitogenome is appended on the right side of the phylogenetic tree. Other regions were omitted due to their same organisation. Genes on the major stand are shown in grey. Gene names for entire tRNAs are abbreviated as single-letter codes.
