Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae).

is a cyprinid fish species endemic to Southwestern China. In this study, we first sequenced and characterized the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of by next-generation sequencing method. The entire length of mitogenome is 16,595 base pairs (bp), containing 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a control region. Its gene arrangement pattern was identical to other previously reported fishes. The overall base composition is 31.12% A, 16.63% G, 25.45% T, and 26.80% C, with AT content of 56.57%. Phylogenetic analysis using mitogenome of 26 Cyprinidae fishes showed that are closely related to and . This work would provide molecular information fundamental to future phylogenetic analyses among species.
