Characterization of the mitochondrial genome of Favonigobius reichei (Perciformes, Gobiidae)

Abstract

Favonigobius reichei, belongs to the family Gobiidae, which is widely distributed in estuarine and marine waters of the coasts of the Indian and the western Pacific Oceans. The entire mitochondrial genome of F. reichei is 16,415 base pairs (bp) in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. The overall base composition is 27.71% A, 26.78% T, 28.02% C, and 17.49% G, showing AT-rich feature (54.49%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 13 PCGs shows the F. reichei has the closest evolutionary relationship with Myersina macrostoma. This work provides a valuable mitogenome resource for better understanding of the conservation genetics, environmental DNA, and population studies in the family Gobiidae.
