Abstract
The long PCR and primer walking methods are used for determining the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Sillago aeolus. The entire sequence is 16,499 bp in length including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 non-coding regions (L-strand replication origin and control region). Within the control region, we identified the termination-associated sequence domain (TAS), central conserved domains (CSB-F, CSB-E, CSB-D, CSB-C, CSB-B and CSB-A), and three conserved sequence blocks (CSB-1, CSB-2 and CSB-3).
