Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Acanthopagrus schlegelii was presented in this study. The mitochondrial genome is 16,798 bp long and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. The gene order and composition of A. schlegelii mitochondrial genome was similar to that of most other vertebrates. The nucleotide compositions of the light strand in descending order is 28.04% of T, 27.94% of G, 27.87% of A and 16.15% of C. With the exception of the NADH dehydrogenase subunit 6 (ND6) and 8 tRNA genes, all other mitochondrial genes are encoded on the heavy strand. The phylogenetic analysis by maximum-likelihood method shown that he A. schlegelii has the closer relationship to the Rhabdosargus sarba in the phylogenetic relationship.

Keywords: Acanthopagrus schlegelii; mitochondrial genome; phylogenetic.
