Abstract
- Macropodus erythropterusis a small well-known aquarium fish. In the present study, the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences ofM. erythropteruswere first determined. The mtDNA ofM. erythropterus(GenBank accession no. KU215670) was a circular molecule of 16 495 bp in length with two ribosome RNA (rRNA) genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, an L-strand replication origin and a control region (CR). The entire mitogenome nucleotide acid was 15.71% for G, 29.66% for A, 28.37% for T and 26.26% for C with an A + T content of 58.03%. And the A + T contents of 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA and CR were 55.63%, 57.66% and 66.79%, respectively. This study provides basic molecular data for studying the conservation biology, phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis of Macropodusinae fishes. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
