The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of Anabarilius duoyiheensis Li, Mao & Lu, 2002 (Cypriniformes: Xenocyprididae)

Abstract

Anabarilius duoyiheensis is a native and rare fish in Yunnan. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of A. duoyiheensis was sequenced and published for a total of 16,614 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs, and one control region. The phylogenetic analysis based on the complete mitochondrial genome showed that A. duoyiheensis belongs to the clade of the genus Anabarilius and was sister to the clade of Hemiculter. This study also contributes to the genus phylogeny of Anabarilius and other members of the family Xenocyprididae.
