Here, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome of a bagrid catfish, Mystus rhegma. The whole mitogenome of M. rhegma was a circular molecule with 16,525 nucleotides, composed of 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA, 13 protein-coding genes, and a non-coding control region. The contents of A, T, C, and G are 30.89%, 26.00%, 27.43%, and 15.68%, respectively. In terms of AT and CG contents, the content of AT is obviously higher than that of CG, 56.89% and 43.11%, respectively. The phylogenetic analysis reveals that M. rhegma has a close relationship with M. mysticetus.
The complete mitochondrial genome of Parabramis pekinensis was determined in this study. It contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA, two rRNAs, and a control region with the base composition 31.11% A, 27.80% C, 24.81% T, and 16.27% G. Here, we compared this newly determined mitogenome with another one from the same species reported before. The variable sites and the genetic distances between the two mitogenomes were 96 bp and 0.6%. Eight-three variable sites were occurred in the PCGs. The results from the phylogenetic analysis showed that P. pekinensis is close to Megalobrama terminalis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
