The complete mitochondrial genome of ?yingfish (Cheilopogon spilonotopterus) from South China Sea.


ABSTRACT: Flyingfishes are epipelagic specialists that are easily distinguished by their enlarged fins, which are used for gliding leaps over the surface of the water. In this study, we described the complete mitochondrial genome of Cheilopogon spilonotopterus. The genome is 16,527?bp in length, encoding the standard set of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes and two rRNA genes, with circular organization. The overall base composition of the whole mitochondrial genome was A (28.86%), T (26.96%), G (16.66%) and C (27.52%) with an AT bias of 55.82%. The ATG initiation codon is used in all protein-coding genes except COX1, and the stop codons of all the 13 protein-coding genes were complete.
