Abstract
The complete mitochondrial DNA genome sequence of Ussuri catfish (Pseudobagrus ussuriensis) was determined. The mitochondrial genome sequence is a circular molecule with 16,536 bp in length. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions. The nucleotide acid composition of the entire mitogenome is 31.79% for A, 26.84% for T, 14.87% for G, and 26.50% for C, showing a high A+T content. The complete mitogenome sequence of P. ussuriensis can be used in the studies on molecular systematics, conservation genetics, and stock evaluation.
