Identification of the mitogenome of Sarcocheilichthys nigripinnis (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae).

In the present study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the Sarcocheilichthys nigripinnis (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae) was sequenced and identified, the phylogenetic analysis with other individual of Sarcocheilichthys fishes was carried out. Totally, this genome is 16,679bp in length, which consists of 13 PCDs, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions. The total base composition is: 30.05% A, 26.40% T, 26.70% C, and 16.85% G, respectively. These results will provide useful data for species identification and genetics study of Sarcocheilichthys fishes.
