Blackchin tilapia, Sarotherodon melanotheron, is a highly salt-tolerant species in tilapias. In this paper, the complete mitochondrial genome of S. melanotheron was determined first. The mitogenome (16,627 bp) had the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 putative control region. It shared 95.1%, 93.2%, and 92.2% mitogenome sequence with Oreochromis aureus, Oreochromis niloticus, and Oreochromis mossambicus, respectively.
黑颊罗非鱼(Sarotherodon melanotheron)是罗非鱼中高度耐盐的物种。本文首次测定了黑颊罗非鱼的完整线粒体基因组。该线粒体基因组(16,627 bp)具有典型的脊椎动物线粒体基因排列,包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA基因、2个rRNA基因和1个假定的控制区。它与奥利亚罗非鱼、尼罗罗非鱼和莫桑比克罗非鱼的线粒体基因组序列分别共享95.1%、93.2%和92.2%。
