2016
AbstractWe present the complete mitochondrial genome of Argyrosomus amoyensis in this study. The mitochondrial genome is 16,490 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. All of them are encoded on the heavy strand except ND6 and 8 tRNA genes on the light strand. The nucleotide compositions of the light strand are 31.02% of G, 26.96% of T, 25.31% of A and 16.71% of C. All the protein-coding genes begin with ATG initiation codon, and 5 types of inferred termination codons are AGA (COXI), T (COXII, ND3, ND4, Cytb), TA (ND2, COXIII), TAA (ATP8, ATP6, ND4L, ND5, ND6) and TAG (ND1). There are 11 intergenic spacers, 7 gene overlaps and no tandem repeat sequence. Gene arrangement and distribution are consistent with the typical vertebrates.
