Complete mitochondrial genome of the Korean bitterling Acheilognathus intermedia (Cypriniformes

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from the Korean bitterling Acheilognathus intermedia . The genome sequence was 16,610 bp in size, and the gene order and contents were identical with the congeneric Acheilognathus signifier and other previously reported fish mitochondrial genomes. Of 13 protein-coding genes ( PCG s), three genes ( CO2, CO3 , and Cytochrome b ) had incomplete stop codons. The base composition of A. intermedia showed anti-G bias (12.48%) on the third position of PCGs.
