Abstract

In this study, the complete mitogenome sequence of the Chinese rod gugeon, Abbottina rivularis (Basilewsky, 1855) has been amplified. The mitogenome, consisting of 16,608 base pairs (bp), had the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs genes and a noncoding control region (CR). CR of 929 bp length is located between tRNA(Pro) and tRNA(Phe). The overall base composition of A. rivularis is 29.9% for A, 27.2% for C, 25.7% for T and 17.3% for G, with higher AT content of 55.6%. The complete mitogenome may provide rather essential and important DNA molecular data for further phylogenetic analysis for not only congeneric species but also higher different taxa of Cyprinid fishes.

Keywords: Abbottina rivularis; Gobioninae; complete mitogenome.
