The Mitochondrial Genome of Linichthys laticeps (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae): Characterization and Phylogeny.

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) have been widely used in phylogenetic analysis and evolutionary biology. The Labeoninae is the largest subfamily of Cypriniformes and has great economic importance and ecological value. In this study, we sequenced, annotated, and characterized the complete mitogenome of Linichthys laticeps and then constructed the phylogenetic tree with previously published Labeoninae mitogenomes. The mitogenome of L. laticeps was 16,593 bp in length, with an A + T content of 57.1%. The mitogenome contained a standard set of 37 genes and a control region with the same order and orientation of genes as most fish mitogenomes. Each protein-coding gene (PCG) was initiated by an initial ATG codon, excluding COI, that began with a GTG codon. Further
