Mahachai bettas () are distributed in areas of brackish water with Nipa Palms in Samut Sakhon, Thailand but urbanization is restricting their biodiversity. A complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of was determined to support conservation programs. Mitogenome sequences were 16,980 bp in length with slight AT bias (61.91%), containing 37 genes with identical order to most teleost mitogenomes. Phylogenetic analysis of showed a closer relationship with . Results will allow the creation of a reference annotated genome that can be utilized to sustain biodiversity and eco-management of the betta to improve conservation programs.
马察猜斗鱼分布在泰国沙没沙空咸淡水与尼帕棕榈生长的区域,但城市化正在限制它们的生物多样性。测定了马察猜斗鱼完整的线粒体基因组(线粒体基因组)以支持保护计划。线粒体基因组序列长度为16,980 bp,具有轻微的AT偏向性(61.91%),包含37个基因,其排列顺序与大多数硬骨鱼线粒体基因组相同。马察猜斗鱼的系统发育分析表明它与[此处原文缺失相关斗鱼名称]关系更密切。研究结果将有助于创建一个注释参考基因组,可用于维持斗鱼的生物多样性和生态管理,以改进保护计划。
