Contrary to some of its relatives from Veneridae family, such as Venerupis philippinarium, the clam Eurhomalea rufa lacks doubly uniparental inheritance system of mitochondria. Here we present the argument for strict maternal inheritance of mitochondria in this species, based on next-generation sequencing of gonadal transcriptomes.
