Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Odontobutis platycephala collected from a native Korean river was determined by the bioinformatics assembly of the next-generation sequencing (NGS) reads. The circular mitogenome was 17,590 bp length which harbored canonical 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, and 2 rRNAs, which was identical to those of family Odontobutidae. Twenty-eight genes were located on H strand, whereas remaining nine genes were on L strand. Except for COX1 gene (GTG), other 12 protein-coding genes were predicted typical start codons (ATG). Among the currently known mitogenome sequences, O. platycephala showed highest identity (96.98%) to Korean haplotype of O. platycephala (NC010199).
