The complete mitogenome and phylogenetic analysis of Acrossocheilus beijiangensis (osteichthyes: Cyprinidae)

Abstract

Acorssocheilus beijiangensis is an endemic south China stream-dwelling cyprinid species. Its complete mitochondrial genome is 16,596 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes (ranging from 67 bp in tRNA^Cys to 76 bp in tRNA^Leu and tRNA^Lys), two rRNA genes (959 bp in 12S rRNA and 1683 bp in 16S rRNA), and one control region (937 bp). Its overall base composition is A: 31.1%, C: 27.9%, G: 16.2%, and T: 124.8%. The complete mitogenome of the Chinese barred species of Cyprinidae could provide a basic data for further phylogenetics analysis.
