Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Nov;27(6):4274-4275. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2015.1082091. Epub 2015 Oct 5.

Abstract

We determined the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Nemateleotris decora by using a long polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and next-generation sequence (NGS) technology. The total length of N. decora mitogenome is 16 502 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs genes, and a non-coding control region. The overall base composition of N. decora is 25.22% for A, 25.90% for T, 30.69% for G, and 18.19% for C. Our results showed the complete mitogenome is a good marker for the phylogenetic study.
