Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the fork-tailed threadfin bream, Nemipterus furcosus (Spariformes, Nemipteridae) and phylogenetic analysis.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome of the fork-tailed threadfin bream, Nemipterus furcosus, which belongs to the family Nemipteridae was first determined. The complete mitochondrial genome was 16,882 bp in size and encoded of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region. Nemipterus furcosus has a mitochondrial gene arrangement that is typical of vertebrates. Phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial genomes of 11 related species revealed that N. furcosus formed a well-supported monophyletic group with the other Nemipteridae species. This mitochondrial genome provides a useful information for addressing taxonomic issues.
