Chinese sleeper ( Perccottus glenii) belongs to the largest vertebrate order, Perciformes. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of P. glenii was determined to be 16,487 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. We also analysed the sequence structure of non-coding control region. Comparing the mitochondrial genome of P. glenii with its congener Rhyacichthys aspro showed sequence similarity and the identical gene arrangement. The complete mitochondrial genome of Chinese sleeper provides the basis for the studies in Perciformes evolution and conservation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

China is very rich in mud fish and some detailed studies were classified and biological studies have been carried out. But many, such as genetics and evolutionary aspects, require further investigation. Here, we sequenced the complete mitogenome sequence ofTriplophysa bombifronsandTriplophysa strauchii. They are circular molecule of 16 571 and 16 568 bp in size, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs and 1 non-coding control region (D-loop). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ili marinka (Schizothorax pseudoaksaiensis) belongs to the family Cyprinidae, which is found only in Ili River in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. In this study, we reported the complete sequence of mitochondrial genome ofS. pseudoaksaiensis. The genome is 16,586 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and the non-coding control regions (D-loop). The complete mitochondrial genome base composition is 29.80% for A, 17.85% for G, 25.31% for T, and 27.04% for C, with a slight A+T bias of 55.11%. The mitochondrial genome can contribute to the studies on genetic diversity and conservation ofS. pseudoaksaiensis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The guppy (Poecilia reticulata), a member of thePoeciliidae family, is one of the most popular aquarium fish. Here, we reported the complete mitochondrial genome ofP. reticulata. The genome is 16,570 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. The structure of non-coding control region was also analyzed. Comparing the mitochondrial genome ofP. reticulatawith its congenerXiphophorus maculatusrevealed the high sequence similarity and the identical gene structure. The complete mitochondrial genome of the guppy would help study the evolution ofPoeciliidaefamily. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The mitochondrial genome was amplified in two large overlapping fragments by long PCR and one gap PCR. The complete Northeastern China burbot mitogenome sequence (KC844053) is 16,575 bp in length. Similar to most vertebrata, the mitogenome has a set of 37 genes: including 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA and 2 rRNA genes. More than 98% nucleotide sequence was simil to the reported individual.

The complete mitochondrial genome ofGnathopogon argentatuswas determined to be 16,607 bp long circular molecule with a typical gene arrangement of vertebrate mitochondrial DNA. The complete mitochondrial genome ofG. argentatusis 16,607 bp in length with 56.02% AT content, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region. The complete mitochondrial genome ofG. argentatuswas obtained for the first time and would play an important role in population structure and conservation genetic studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, we sequenced and determined the complete mitochondrial genome of rosy barb (Puntius conchonius). The circular mitochondrial genome (17,082 bp) consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region. This is the first report on the complete mitogenome sequence of rosy barb (P. conchonius). [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Amur whitefin gudgeon (Romanogobio tenuicorpus) belongs to the family Cyprinidae, it is freshwater aquaculture species in China. In the report, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence ofRomanogobio tenuicorpus, which is 16,600 bp long circular molecule with 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and a control region, the conserved sequence blocks, CSB1, CSB2 and CSB3 were also detected.

The kissing gourami (Helostoma temminkii) belongs to the Labyrinth fishes (Perciformes: Anabantoidei), which exhibits a wide variety of behavioral traits. In this study the complete mitogenome of H. temminkii was determined to be 16,740 bp in length. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. The sequence structure of non-coding control region was also analyzed. Comparing the mitochondrial genome of H. temminkii with its closely related species Colisa lalia showed the similarity of 78%. The complete mitochondrial genome of H. temminkii provides resource for phylogenetic analysis on Anabantoidei. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We first sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of silvertip tetra (Hasemania nana). The mitogenome was determined to be 16,581 bp long circular molecule with a typical gene arrangement of vertebrate mitochondrial DNA. All genes were encoded on the heavy strand with the exception ofND6and eight tRNA genes. Mitochondrial DNA information provided the basis for the studies in species identification and conservation of the species’ natural resources. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
