Source sentences:
text: The mitochondrial genome is also greatly reduced to only having cob, cox1, and cox3 protein coding genes.
text: The mitochondrial genomes in dinoflagellates are also highly duplicated and recombined, similar to the nuclear genomes, and are comprised of abundant non-coding and repetitive sequences that are rich in AT content, yet these genomes are highly reduced compared to other closely related protists, due to gene transfers to the nucleus [ 63 77 ].
