Abstract
We present the complete mitochondrial genome of the Plectorhinchus cinctus in this study. The mitochondrial genome is 16,523 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. The nucleotide compositions of the light strand are 31.30% of C, 27.66% of A, 24.54% of T, and 16.50% of G. With the exception of ND6 and eight tRNA genes, all other mitochondrial genes are encoded on the heavy strand. All the protein-coding genes begin with an ATG initiation codon except for COX1 with GTG. Five types of termination codons revealed are TAA (ND1, ND2, ATP8, ND4L, ND5), T (COXП, ND3, ND4, CYTB), TA (ATP6, COXШ), AGG (COXІ) and TAG (ND6).
