Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Megalobrama pellegrini was determined by using a PCR-based sequencing method. The mitochondrial was 16,620 bp in length, including 13 protein genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and one control region. All genes were encoded on the heavy strain except for ND6 and eight tRNA genes. The gene arrangement of M. pellegrini was similar to those found in the other Megalobrama species. Base composition of the heavy strain was A (31.19%), T (24.69%), C (46.37%), G (16.22%) and with A + T bias of 55.88%.
