Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Glossogobius giuris (Perciformes: Gobiidae)

Abstract

2018)Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Glossogobiusgiuris (Perciformes: Gobiidae), Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 3:1, 395-396, ABSTRACTThe species tank goby (Glossogobius giuris) is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. In the present study, we first determined and described the complete mitochondrial genome of G. giuris. The circular genome is 16,595 bp in length. It has the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and one non-coding control region. The overall base composition is 29.1% for A, 24.6% for T, 29.4% for C, and 17.0% for G. Phylogenetic analysis of 21 species in the family Gobiidae showed that G. giuris was clustered into the genus Glossogobius, subfamily Gobiinae. This information will contribute to future phylogenetic studies of Gobiidae and conservation strategies for G. giuris. ARTICLE HISTORY

Unravelling the taxonomy and identification of a problematic group of benthic fishes from tropical rivers (Gobiidae: Glossogobius)

“…Nonetheless, specific names that can be applied to giuris A and giuris B require further broader investigation of type material and available names. A recent proliferation of regional barcode initiatives ( e.g ., Abdulmalik‐Labe & Quilang, 2019; Ahmed, 2017; Dahruddin et al ., 2017; Laskar et al ., 2017; Patil et al ., 2018; Thu et al ., 2019; Wang et al ., 2018) greatly contributes to a collective international data pool (Ratnasingham & Hebert, 2007), suggesting much broader distributions for both species and that G. giuris s.l. likely pertains to a complex of at least four species ( giuris A–D).…”

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Eleutheronema rhadinum (Perciforms: Polynemidae)

“…It had the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement (Wang et al. 2018 ) and consisted of 13 PCGs, 22 tRNAs, two rRNAs, and one control region (CR). Most genes were encoded on the heavy strand, except ND6 and eight tRNA genes ( tRNA-Gln , tRNA-Ala , tRNA-Asn , tRNA-Cys , tRNA-Tyr , tRNA-Ser ( GCU ) , tRNA-Glu , and tRNA-Pro ), which were encoded on the light strand.…”

The complete mitochondrial genome of Thryssa hamiltonii and phylogenetic analysis of Engraulidae (Clupeiformes; Clupeoidei)

“…All PCGs initiate with ATG as the start codon, except for COX1 (GTG). This is common in vertebrate mtDNA (Wang et al 2018). Five PCGs (ND1, COX1, ATPase8, ATPase6, and ND4L) typically terminate with TAA as the stop codon; however, ND6 ends with AGG.…”
