Abstract

Schizopygopsis anteroventris (Cyprinidae: Schizothoracinae) is an ecologically and economically important cyprinid endemic to Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China. In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of S. anteroventris by DNA sequencing based on PCR fragments. The mitogenome of S. anteroventris is 16,620 in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and two non-coding regions: the control region (D-loop) and the origin of light-strand replication (OL). The gene order in the mitogenome is identical with common vertebrate form. The complete mitogenome sequence is useful for further genetic studies, phylogenetic analysis and resource protection of S. anteroventris.
