The complete mitochondrial genome of natural Misgurnus bipartitus (Cypriniformes: Cobitidae).
Misgurnus bipartitus, a small sized freshwater fish species, is one of the most important cultured fish in East Asia. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of M. bipartitus is sequenced to be 16,636 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, a control region and the origin of the light strand replication. The overall base composition of M. bipartitus in descending order is A 29.79%, T 27.95%, C 25.90% and G 16.36%, with a slight A + T bias. The mitogenome sequence data may provide useful information to the population genetics analysis of M. bipartitus and the elucidation of evolutionary mechanisms in Cobitidae.
