Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the natural triploid loach Misgurnus anguillicaudatus is a circular molecule of 16,646 bp in size, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes and 2 main noncoding regions (the control region and the origin of the light strand replication). Most of the genes are encoded on the heavy strand, except for ND6 and 8 tRNAs. The control region is 918 bp in length and located between the tRNAPro and tRNAPhe genes, some typical conserved elements (TAS, CSB1-3 and CSB D-F) were found in this region. All these features reflect a typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement of the triploid M. anguillicaudatus.
