Complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater gudgeon, Pseudopungtungia nigra (Cypriniformes, Gobioninae)

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from the freshwater fish,Pseudopungtungia nigra. The genome sequence was 16,605 bp in size, and the gene orderand contents were identical with the cyprinid fish without any peculiar features. Of 13 proteincodinggenes (PGCs), 3 genes (CO2, CO3 and Cytb) had an incomplete stop codon. The basecomposition of P. nigra showed anti-G bias (13.71% and 9.48%) on the second and thirdpositions of PCGs.
