The complete mitochondrial genome of the Jaguar Loach (Yasuhikotakia splendida)

Herein, we present the complete mitochondrial genome of the Jaguar Loach, Yasuhikotakia splendida. The sequence was determined from an aquarium specimen using a next-generation sequencing approach. The annotated Y. splendida mitogenome was 16,695 bp in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes (P...

Description
Summary:Herein, we present the complete mitochondrial genome of the Jaguar Loach, Yasuhikotakia splendida. The sequence was determined from an aquarium specimen using a next-generation sequencing approach. The annotated Y. splendida mitogenome was 16,695 bp in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 non-coding control region. The Y. splendida mitogenome displayed an A + T bias with an overall base composition of 32.0% A, 24.7% T, 27.6% C, and 15.7% G. Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses, based on the aligned mitogenome sequences of 22 botiid loach species from each of the 8 genera and 3 outgroups, generated nearly identical trees that supported the Jaguar Loach as the sister species to the Skunk Loach, Y. morleti.
