Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of Oujiang color carp was determined to be 16,581 bp in length accurately using the next generation sequencing technology and bioinformatics tools. The complete mitochondrial genome of Oujiang color carp shows typical circular molecule structure of vertebrate's mitochondrial genome, which consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region. The whole genome base composition was estimated to be 31.89% A, 27.53% C, 15.76% G, and 24.82% T with A/T bias of 56.71%. The complete mitochondrial genome of Oujiang color carp provides the basis for genetic breeding and conservation studies.
