Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Biko’s redigoby Redigobius bikolanus (Herre, 1927) has been amplified in this study. R. bikolanus contributes in Taiwan, as well as Southeast Asia. The complete mitochondrial genome is 16,464 base pairs (bp) in total length, had the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, 1 control region (CR) and 1 light-strand replication origin (OL). The overall base composition of R. bikolanus is 28.9% for A, 26.7% for T, 28.5% for C, 15.9% for G, with higher AT content 55.6%. This study will contribute and be rather beneficial for understanding the phylogenetic approach of genus Redigobius.
