The complete mitochondrial genome of the Hemibagrus wyckioides (Siluriformes, Bagridae).

ABSTRACT

We present the complete mitochondrial genome of the Hemibagrus wyckioides in this study. The mitochondrial genome is 16,525 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. Its mitochondrial gene order and composition are similar to that of most other vertebrates. The nucleotide compositions of the light strand are 31.47% of A, 26.72 % of C, 26.62% of T, and 15.19% of G. With the exception of ND6 and eight tRNA genes, all other mitochondrial genes are encoded on the heavy strand.
