Phylogenetic analysis of Cyprinus acutidorsalis (Wang, 1979) from the Hainan population using complete mitochondrial genome
Abstract
Cyprinus acutidorsalis (Wang, 1979) is an endemic fish in China that is sparsely distributed in the Hainan provinces and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (GZAR). In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of C. acutidorsalis from the Hainan population from the Wanquan River was sequenced, and its phylogenetic relationship was analyzed. The circular mtDNA was 16,581 bp in length, and the overall base composition was A (32.0%), C (27.5%), T (24.8%), and G (15.70%), with a slight bias toward A + T. The complete mitogenome encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a control region. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the most closely related fish to C. acutidorsalis from the Hainan population was C. acutidorsalis from the Guangxi population. These findings offer basic molecular data and a better understanding of the phylogenetic relationships among the Cyprinus species.
