The complete mitochondrial genome of Lamprologus signatus (Perciformes: Cichlidae).
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In this study, the complete 16,583 bp mitochondrial genome of Lamprologus signatus (Poll, 1952) was determined from a specimen sourced from Lake Tanganyika. The mitogenome contains 37 genes [13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes] and a putative control region, which consists of 27.1% A, 27.0% T, 29.9% C, and 16.0% G, with a total G + C content of 45.9%. A maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree based on mitochondrial PCGs suggested that L. signatus is clustered with members of the tribes Haplochromini and Tropheini. As this is the first report of the entire mitogenome in the tribe Lamprologini, the complete mitochondrial sequence information of L. sigantus will be useful in determining phylogenetic relationships of Pseudocrenilabrinae tribes.
