RESUMO
We report two complete mitochondrial genomes of Cottus pollux based on specimens collected from Deokdong and Hoam Streams in the Republic of Korea. The two complete mitochondrial genomes were 16,558 and 16,557 bp long. Both contain the 37 standard genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and one control region) in the same order and have similar nucleotide compositions. According to the phylogenetic tree constructed using the maximum-likelihood method, C. pollux is closely related to C. reinii. The genetic information provided by the complete mitochondrial genome of C. pollux will contribute to an understanding of the phylogenetic position, evolutionary relationships, and biogeographical patterns of this species within the genus Cottus.
RESUMO
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.
RESUMO
This study is the first to report the complete 15,262 base pair mitochondrial genome of Buccinum bayani, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a control region (D-loop). The overall base composition of the complete genome is A (29.87%), T (39.11%), G (15.86%), and C (15.16%), with a high AT content of 68.98%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that B. bayani was most closely related to B. undatum. The mitogenome of B. bayani will provide helpful information to further our phylogenetic and evolutionary understanding of the family Buccininae.
RESUMO
This study is the first to research to report the complete 16,496 bp mitochondrial genome of Micropogonias furnieri, which consists of 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a control region (D-loop). The overall base composition of the complete genome is 27.26% A, 25.65% T, 16.46% G, and 30.63% C, with a high A + T content of 52.91%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that M. furnieri was most closely related to Sciaenops ocellatus. In this study, the mitogenome of M. furnieri will provide useful information for phylogenetic and evolutionary understanding in the family Sciaenidae.
