Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Opsaridium microlepis was determined by using llumina sequencing method. The genome is 168 25 bp in length, comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 20 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes and one control region (D-loop region). Most genes are encoded on the heavy strand (H-strand), except for nad6 and eight tRNA genes. Base composition of the H-strand are A (27.97%), C (26.34%), G (18.37%) and T (27.32%) with AT bias of 55.29%.
