Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of the firemouth cichlid, Thorichthys meeki (Perciformes: Cichlidae).

ABSTRACT: Here, we report information on the complete mitochondrial genome of the firemouth cichlid, Thorichthys meeki (Brind 1918). Illumina HiSeq genome sequencing produced the assembly of a circular mitogenome of 16,527 base pairs (bp) from T. meeki consisting of 46.8% GC nucleotides, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a putative control region as shown in the typical teleost gene composition. The gene order of the T. meeki mitogenome was identical to that of other cichlid species. A maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree based on mitochondrial PCGs showed a close relationship of T. meeki with Thorichthys aureus (Gunther 1862) within Heroini tribe.

Complete mitochondrial DNA genome of banded cichlid Heros severus Heckel, 1840 (Perciformes: Cichlidae).

Project description:In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Heros severus Heckel, 1840 (Perciformes, Cichlidae). This mitochondrial genome, consisting of 16,577 base pairs (bp), contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 noncoding control regions (control region and origin of light-strand replication) as those found in other vertebrates. Control region, of 917 bp in length, is located between tRNAPro and tRNAPhe. Within the control region, typical conserved domains, such as the termination-associated sequence (TAS), central, and conserved sequence blocks domains were identified. The overall base composition of the heavy strand shows 27.6% of T, 26.3% of C, 29.3% of A, and 16.8% of G, with a slight A + T rich feature (56.9%). The complete mitogenome data provide useful genetic markers for the studies on the molecular identification, population genetics, phylogenetic analysis, and conservation genetics.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of the rainbow krib, Pelvicachromis pulcher (Perciformes: Cichlidae).

Project description:We report the complete mitochondrial genome information of the rainbow krib, Pelvicachromis pulcher (Boulenger 1901). Illumina HiSeq genome sequencing allowed the assembly of a circular mitogenome of 17,196 base pairs (bp) from P. pulcher consisting of 47% GC nucleotides, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a putative control region in the typical teleost gene composition. The gene order of the P. pulcher mitogenome was identical to that of other cichlid species. A maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree based on mitochondrial PCGs showed a relationship of P. pulcher with a cichlid Tylochromis polylepis (Boulenger 1900), suggesting that more complete mitogenomes are needed to explore mitogenome evolution in West African tribes and riverine cichlids, as this genomic information is the first complete mitogenome in the tribe Chromidotilapiini.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Lamprologus signatus (Perciformes: Cichlidae).

Project description: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.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Sarotherodon galilaeus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Perciformes: Cichlidae) and its phylogenetic placement.

Project description:Sarotherodon galilaeus (Linnaeus, 1758), a cichlid species that is naturally distributed in African and Eurasian waters, was introduced in many Asian countries for aquaculture. To date, rare genetic studies focused on this species have hindered our understanding of this species. Here, we reported the complete mitochondrial genome of S. galilaeus that was sequenced using next-generation sequencing technology. The resulting mitogenome of S. galilaeus was 16,630 in length and comprised 13 protein-coding genes (PCG), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNA), and one control region (D-loop). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that Oreochromini species contained two lineages (I and II) and S. galilaeus clustered with Oreochromis aureus rather than other Sarotherodon species.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Mango tilapia (Sarotherodon galilaeus: Cichlidae).

Project description:BackgroundSarotherodon galilaeus (Linné, 1758) is a member of the family Cichlidae, which is considered the most important aquaculture freshwater species endemic to Africa and the Middle East. The genetics and molecular biology of this species are rare. This requires more comprehensive mitochondrial genomes-based phylogenetics to enhance understanding of the relationship and delineate this species.Methods and resultsHere, we assembled the complete mitogenome of S. galilaeus using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology. The mango tilapia mitogenome was 16,631 bp in length with an AT composition of 53.4% and 46.4% GC content. It encodes 37 genes comprising two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) as well as the D-loop known as the control region. The phylogenetic tree was conducted to provide a relationship within the haplotilapiine lineage based on the maximum likelihood method, and the newly sequenced S. galilaeus was clustered with other Sarotherodon species.ConclusionOur results provide a new perception of the genetic basis of S. galilaeus species for further research on systematics, evolution, population genetics, and molecular ecology.

This mitochondrial genome provides potentially important resources for addressing taxonomic issues and studying molecular evolution.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Terapon theraps (Perciformes: Terapontidae).

Project description:We assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of Terapon theraps based on high-throughput Illumina sequencing. The mitochondrial genome of T. theraps is 16,587 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, two rRNAs, and one putative control region (CR), and its overall nucleotides base composition is 27.4% A, 25.7% T, 16.9% G, and 29.9% C. Bayesian Inference revealed that all species of Terapontidae formed into one group, while the other nine species within Perciformes clustered into the other group. Rhynchopelates oxyrhynchus and T. theraps were the closest relatives. These results should help to better understand the phylogenetic interrelationships of Terapontidae.
