Abstract
Toxabramis swinhonis is a one of the main bycatch species in China’s freshwater fishery and an important food resource for the larger fishes in the main rivers and lakes in China. For better understanding the biology of this species, the complete mitochondrial genome of Toxabramis swinhonis was determined and analyzed in this study. The complete mitogenome of T. swinhonis is 16 622 bp in length, which contains 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes and 2 non-coding regions: origin of light-strand replication (OL) and control region (D-loop). The determination of T. swinhonis mitogenome would play an important role in genetic diversity and evolution for Cyprinidae.
