Complete mitochondrial genomes of the Southeast Asian freshwater pufferfishes, Pao abei (Roberts, 1998) and Pao suvattii (Sontirat and Soonthornsatit, 1985) (Tetraodontiformes: Tetraodontidae) and an insight into the taxonomic status of Pao species
Abstract:The complete mitochondrial genomes of the Southeast Asian freshwater pufferfishes, Pao abei and Pao suvattii, were reconstructed using the MGISEQ platform. The genomes were 16,448 bp and 16,449 bp in length, each made up of 37 mitochondrial genes (13 CDSs, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs) and putative control region. It is suggested that an accumulation of complete mitochondrial genome sequences can contribute to resolve the taxonomic status of Pao species.
