Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of sea carp Cyprinus acutidorsalis was determined in this study. The genome was 16,579 bp in length. As in other vertebrates, it consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 1 non-coding control region. The overall base composition was estimated to be A, 31.9%; T, 24.8%; C, 27.6% and G, 15.7% with AT bias of 56.7%. The genomic composition, organization, and gene order of C. acutidorsalis was similar to most of vertebrates. This result may provide the basis for the study of genetic structure as well as resource conservation and protection of C. acutidorsalis.
