The complete mitochondrial genome of Aluterus monoceros (A. monoceros) has been sequenced. The mitochondrial genome of A. monoceros is 16,429 bp in length, consisting of 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes and a D-loop region (Gen Bank accession number KP637022). The base A + T of the mitochondrial genome is 63.25%, including 33.16% of A, 30.09% of T and 20.74% of C. Twelve protein-coding genes start with a standard ATG as the initiation codon, expect for the COXI, which begins with GTG. Some of the termination codons are incomplete T or TA, except for the ND1, COXI, ATP8, ND4L1, ND5 and ND6, which stop with TAA. Construction of phylogenetic trees based on the entire mitochondrial genome sequence of 14 Tetrodontiformes species constructed has suggested that A. monoceros has closer relationship with Acreichthys tomentosus and Monacanthus chinensis, and they constitute a sister group.
单角革鲀（Aluterus monoceros）的完整线粒体基因组已被测序。单角革鲀的线粒体基因组长度为16429 bp，由22个tRNA基因、2个rRNA基因、13个蛋白质编码基因和一个D-loop区域组成（Gen Bank登录号KP637022）。线粒体基因组的碱基A+T含量为63.25%，其中A占33.16%，T占30.09%，C占20.74%。12个蛋白质编码基因以标准的ATG作为起始密码子，除了COXI以GTG起始。部分终止密码子为不完整的T或TA，除了ND1、COXI、ATP8、ND4L1、ND5和ND6以TAA终止。基于14种鲀形目物种的完整线粒体基因组序列构建的系统发育树表明，单角革鲀与绒纹单角鲀（Acreichthys tomentosus）和中华单角鲀（Monacanthus chinensis）关系更近，它们构成一个姐妹群。
