The complete mitogenome and phylogenetic analysis of Acrossocheilus beijiangensis (osteichthyes: Cyprinidae)

Abstract

Acorssocheilus beijiangensis is an endemic south China stream-dwelling cyprinid species. Its complete mitochondrial genome is 16,596 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes (ranging from 67 bp in tRNACys to 76 bp in tRNALeu and tRNALys), two rRNA genes (959 bp in 12S rRNA and 1683 bp in 16S rRNA), and one control region (937 bp). Its overall base composition is A: 31.1%, C: 27.9%, G: 16.2%, and T: 124.8%. The complete mitogenome of the Chinese barred species of Cyprinidae could provide a basic data for further phylogenetics analysis.
