Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Jul;27(4):2798-9. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2015.1053072. Epub 2015 Jul 7.
The killifish Orestias ascotanensis is endemic to the small isolated springs of Ascotán salt pan in the Central High Andes, Chile. Due to small populations, mining activity, and increasing aridity, this species is catalogued in danger of extinction. The complete mitochondrial genome of O. ascotanesis was assembled with an Ion Torrent sequencer (chip 318) that produced 2.61 million of reads. The 16 617 bp of the entire genome consisted of 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, and a control region, showing that the gene composition and arrangement match to that reported for most fishes.
鳉鱼奥氏南美鳉是智利中安第斯山脉阿斯科坦盐沼小而孤立的泉水中特有的物种。由于种群数量少、采矿活动以及干旱加剧,该物种被列为濒危物种。奥氏南美鳉的完整线粒体基因组是用离子激流测序仪(芯片318)组装的,该测序仪产生了261万个读数。整个基因组的16617碱基对由22个转移RNA、2个核糖体RNA、13个蛋白质编码基因和一个控制区组成,表明基因组成和排列与大多数鱼类报道的情况相符。
