Abstract

In this study, we reported the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the hybrid of Siniperca chuatsi (♀)×Siniperca kneri (♂). The total length of the mitochondrial genome is 16,493 bp, with the base composition of 28.61% A, 29.21% C, 16.21% G, and 25.97% T. It contains 2 rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a major non-coding control region (D-loop region). The composition and order of these genes are identical to most of other vertebrates. All the protein initiation codons are ATG, except for COX1 that begins with GTG. The complete mitogenome of the hybrid of Siniperca chuatsi (♀) × Siniperca kneri (♂) provides an important data set for the study in genetic mechanism.

Keywords: Genome; hybrid of Siniperca chuatsi (♀)×Siniperca kneri (♂); mitochondrial.
