ABSTRACT
Acanthogobius lactipes is a demersal, euryhaline fish belonging to the suborder Gobiodei. This study sequenced and described the complete mitochondrial genome of A. lactipes for the first time. The circular genome of A. lactipes is 16,592 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The overall A, C, G, and T contents were 27.78, 27.31, 17.52, and 27.39%, respectively. Based on the 13 protein-coding genes, the phylogenetic tree showed that A. lactipes formed a well-supported cluster with the genus Acanthogobius and rooted with other family Oxudercidae species.
ABSTRACT
This study reports the complete mitochondrial genome of a Pungtungia herzi (â) × Pseudopungtungia nigra (â) hybrid. The P. herzi (â) × P. nigra (â) mitochondrial genome consists of 16,601 bp with 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a control region (D-loop). The overall base composition of the complete mitochondrial genome is 29.99% A, 26.97% T, 17.11% G, and 25.92% C. In the phylogenetic tree, P. herzi (â) × P. nigra (â) is closer to P. herzi than to P. nigra. Obtaining the complete mitogenome of P. herzi (â) × P. nigra (â) will provide useful data regarding P. herzi and P. nigra conservation and evolution.
ABSTRACT
The complete mitochondrial genome of the hybrid grouper Hyporthodus septemfasciatus (â)×Epinephelus moara (â) was obtained by next-generation sequencing. The mitochondrial genome was 16,499 bp long, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region (D-loop). The overall base composition is 28.62% A, 28.27% C, 16.27% G, and 26.84% T with 55.46% A + T. In the maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis, the hybrid grouper belonged to the same clade as H. septemfasciatus (maternal inheritance).
