The next-generation sequencing reveals the complete mitochondrial genome of Rhinogobius formosanus (Perciformes: Gobiidae).
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome of the Rhinogobius formosanus is presented in this study. In brief, it is 16,500 bp long and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region. The gene order and composition were similar to those of most other vertebrates. The nucleotide compositions of the heavy strand are 16.6% of G, 26.0% of T, 27.7% of A, and 29.8% of C. With the exception of the NADH dehydrogenase subunit 6 (ND6) and eight tRNA genes, all other mitochondrial genes are encoded on the heavy strand. The phylogenetic analysis by neighbour-joining (NJ) method showed that the R. formosanus has the closer relationship to Rhinogobius leavelli in the phylogenetic relationship.
