The complete mitochondrial genome of a new species of the genus Schizothorax from Sichuan, China (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae).

ABSTRACT: Schizothorax gulinensis sp. nov. is a new species of the genus Schizothorax from Sichuan, China (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae). In this study, we have first reported the complete mitochondrial genome of S. gulinensis with Illumina sequencing. There were 16,587 nucleotide pairs in the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of S. gulinensis, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), as well as one non-coding control region (CR). The proportion of nucleotides in mitochondrial genome was 29.67% (A), 25.45% (T), 17.84% (G), 27.05% (C), and A + T content was 55.12%. All PCGs have the same start codon of the standard ATG, excepting for that of NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (nad1) which was the ATC, NADH dehydrogen
