The complete mitochondrial genome of the mudskipper, Boleophthalmus pectinirostris (Gobiiformes, Oxudercidae) from Beibu Bay
The mudskipper, Boleophthalmus pectinirostris (B. pectinirostris), is an amphibious fish that lives in the intertidal mudflats. It is a cultured economic fish with nutritional and pharmacological value. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of B. pectinirostris, which is 17,111...

| Summary: | The mudskipper, Boleophthalmus pectinirostris (B. pectinirostris), is an amphibious fish that lives in the intertidal mudflats. It is a cultured economic fish with nutritional and pharmacological value. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of B. pectinirostris, which is 17,111 base pairs (55.3% A + T content) in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and a 1453 bp D-loop region. The complete mitochondrial genome of B. pectinirostris will provide useful genetic information for future phylogenetic and taxonomic classification of B. pectinirostris. |
