Complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of Stonogobiops yasha (Perciformes, Gobiidae)

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Stonogobiops yasha was first determined in this study. The circle genome was 16,566 bp long and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 control region. The mitochondrial gene arrangement of S. yasha is si...

Description
Summary:The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Stonogobiops yasha was first determined in this study. The circle genome was 16,566 bp long and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 control region. The mitochondrial gene arrangement of S. yasha is similar to those of most other gobies. The phylogenetic analysis using the neighbor-joining method showed that the kinship between Stonogobiops and Acentrogobius is closer than those between Stonogobiops and other selected genera. This is the first record of the complete mitogenome for the genus Stonogobiops.
