The complete mitochondrial genome of Sinilabeo rendahli (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae)

Abstract

The Sinilabeo rendahli (S. rendahli) belongs to the family Cyprinidae and the order Cypriniformes, which is an economic fish species in southern China. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of S. rendahli was determined (the GenBank accession number is KT336714). The mitochondrial genome sequence of S. rendahli was a circular molecule with 16 586 bp in length, and it contained 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes including 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and a control region (D-loop). Four nucleotide compositions and their relative proportions of the entire mitogenome were, 26.62% C, 15.29% G, 32.31% A and 25.78% T, with an A + T and G + C contents being 58.09 and 41.91%, respectively.
