The Gobiobotia filifer is a small economic fish which distributes in the upstream of Yangtze River and its distributaries. For the environmental pollution and overfishing, its population declined drastically in recent decades, so it is essential to protect its resource. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of G. filifer was determined with PCR technology, which contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a non-coding control region with the total length of 16,613 bp. The order and composition of genes were similar to most of the other teleost fish. Most of the genes were encoded on heavy strand, except for ND6 genes and eight tRNAs. Just like most other vertebrates, the bias of G and C has been found in different genes/regions. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of G. filifer would contribute to better understand evolution of this lineage, population genetics, and will help administrative department to make rules and laws to protect this lineage.
细体金线鲃是一种小型经济鱼类，分布于长江上游及其支流。由于环境污染和过度捕捞，其种群数量在近几十年急剧下降，因此保护其资源至关重要。在本研究中，利用PCR技术测定了细体金线鲃的完整线粒体基因组序列，该序列包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA基因、2个rRNA基因和一个非编码控制区，全长16613bp。基因的顺序和组成与大多数其他硬骨鱼类相似。除ND6基因和8个tRNA外，大多数基因在重链上编码。与大多数其他脊椎动物一样，在不同的基因/区域发现了G和C的偏好。细体金线鲃的完整线粒体基因组序列将有助于更好地了解该谱系的进化、群体遗传学，并将有助于管理部门制定法律法规来保护该谱系。
