The complete mitochondrial genome of Hypseleotris cyprinoides (Perciformes: eleotridae)

Abstract

In this study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of Hypseleotris cyprinoides, which was 16520 bp in length. The mitogenome contained 37 genes, including the typical set of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 2 Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. A, C, G, and T distribution was 28.57%, 29.91%, 16.99%, and 24.53%, respectively. The length of the total protein-coding genes was 11441 bp, which accounts for 66.80% of the whole mitochondrial genome. The Maximum Likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis based on the concatenated nucleotide sequences of 13 PCGs showed that H.cyprinoides as a sister species to Hypseleotris klunzingeri was clustered in the family Hypseleotris. The discovery of the complete mitochondrial genome of H.cyprinoides would help to conduct in-depth research on Hypseleotris.
