Abstract
In this study, the total mitochondrial genome sequence of Pseudobagrus emarginatus (Siluriformes: Bagridae) was firstly sequenced and determined. The complete mtDNA genome sequence of P. emarginatus is 16,534 bp in length. It consists of 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and a non-coding control region (D-loop). The overall-based composition was 31.5% A, 26.8% T, 14.9% G and 26.8% C, with a high A+T content (58.3%), which was nearly the same as other reported catfishes. These results will provide useful data to the natural resources conservation and systematics analysis of P. emarginatus and its related species in future.
