Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Squalidus chankanensis tsuchigae (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae)

Abstract

We determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Squalidus chankanensis tsuchigae (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae). It is 16,603 bp long, with 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region, which is 927 bp long, located between tRNApro and tRNAphe. The overall base composition is as follows: 29.98% A, 16.86% G, 25.44% T, and 27.72% C, with a slight AT bias. These results provide necessary data for phylogenetic studies on Squalidus species.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis of Squalidus multimaculatus

“…To examine the phylogenetic position of S. multimaculatus, we downloaded the mitochondrial genome sequences of five species belonging to the genus Squalidus from GenBank (Tang et al 2011;Li et al 2016;Liu et al 2016;Zhou et al 2016;Park et al 2016Park et al , 2020Yi et al 2017). The phylogenetic tree was constructed with the sequences of the 13 PCGs using the neighbor joining method in the program MEGA7.…”
