The complete mitochondrial genome of moonfish Mene maculata (Perciformes: Menidae)

The moonfish M. maculata is economic important species in the marine fishery in China. However, the genetic information of this species remains unavailable. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of M. maculata. The mitogenome has 16,733 base pairs (53.8% A + T content)...

Zusammenfassung:The moonfish M. maculata is economic important species in the marine fishery in China. However, the genetic information of this species remains unavailable. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of M. maculata. The mitogenome has 16,733 base pairs (53.8% A + T content) and made up of total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, and two ribosomal RNAs), and a putative noncoding control region. This study reports the first available complete mitogenome of Menidae and will provide useful genetic information for future fishery management and aquaculture development of Menidae.
