Abstract

Through primer walking method, the mitochondrial genome sequence of white croaker (Pennahia argentata) from Japanese coastal water was obtained in this study. The mitogenome length of Japanese white croaker was 16,486 bp. The genome contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes, a control region (CR) and a dominating non-coding region. The termination-associated sequence, the central conserved domain, and the conserved sequence blocks were identified in the control region. The origin of L-strand replication was located in a cluster of five tRNA genes between tRNA-Asn and tRNA-Cys.
