The complete mitochondrial genome of the bagarius yarrelli from honghe river

[摘要] The total length of mitochondrial DNA sequence of the Bagarius yarrelli from the Honghe river of China is determined in this paper. The total length of the circular molecule is 16524 base pair which denoted a similar gene order to that of the other bony fishes, which include a non-coding control region, a replicated origin, two ribosome RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes as well as 13 protein-coding genes. Its whole base constitution is 31.4% for A, 26.9% for C, 15.7% for G and 26.0% for T, with an A+T bias of 57.4%. Those mitochondrial data would contribute to further study molecular evolution and population genetics of this species.
