Complete mitochondrial genome of Korean catfish, Liobagrus somjinensis (Actinopterygii, Siluriformes, Amblycipitidae), from South Korea.

ABSTRACT: The Korean catfish, Liobagrus somjinensis, was recorded in 2010 as a new species of genus Liobagrus. The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of L. somjinensis was sequenced by next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis. The assembled mitogenome was 16,526 bp in length and encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, and 2 rRNAs. The gene arrangement, content, and total size were clearly identical with the congeneric species, L. mediadiposalis. Phylogenetic analysis based on nucleotide dataset, consisting PCGs and rRNA genes revealed the taxonomical relationship in species level among the genus Liobagrus.
