The complete mitochondrial genome of Menticirrhus littoralis (Sciaenidae, Perciformes) and its phylogeny.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We describe the mitochondrial genome of the Menticirrhus littoralis and infer the phylogenetic position of Menticirrhus in the family Sciaenidae. The genome contains 16,499 base pairs distributed in gene regions (13 protein-coding regions, 2 rRNAs and 22 tRNAs) and a control region (CR). Our phylogenetic analysis suggests, with strong statistical support, that Menticirrhus is a sister group of the other sciaenids.
