In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome ofPampus argenteus(Perciformes: Stromateidae). The mitogenome is 17,098 bp in length, which contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 23 tRNA genes and 2 non-coding regions: origin of light-strand replication (OL) and control region (D-loop). The overall nucleotide base composition ofP. argenteusmtDNA is A 30.35%, C 25.55%, G 15.28% and T 28.82%, with an A + T content of 59.17%. Except forND6gene and eight tRNA genes, all other mitochondrial genes were encoded on the heavy strand. The mitochondrial genome ofP. argenteusmay be helpful to the studies on conservation genetics and stock evaluation ofP. argenteusresource, as well as molecular phylogeny and species identification of Stromateidae.

Schizothorax oconnori is mainly distributed in the Yarlung Zangbo River drainage in Tibet, China. S. oconnori is assessed as least concern species in International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List. In this paper, we determined the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of S. oconnori. The mitogenome is 16,590 bp in length. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and 2 non-coding regions: origin of light-strand replication ( OL) and control region (D-loop). The complete mitogenome sequence information of S. oconnori can be used in the studies on molecular systematics, stock evaluation and conservation genetics and will be helpful in the development of rational management strategies and sustainable utilization for S. oconnori resource.

In this study, the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of Schizothorax wangchiachii has been determined. The mitogenome is 16,593 bp in length. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions: origin of light-strand replication (OL) and control region (D-loop). The complete mtDNA sequence of S. wangchiachii can contribute to elucidate the evolutionary mechanisms and biogeography of Schizothorax and is useful to stock evaluation and conservation genetics for S. wangchiachii.

In this paper, we determined complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of Schizopygopsis younghusbandi. The mitogenome is 16,674 bp in length, which includes 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and 2 non-coding regions: control region (D-loop) and origin of light-strand replication (OL). The complete mitogenome sequence of S. younghusbandi is useful to the studies on taxonomic status, molecular systematics, stock evaluation, and conservation genetics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The complete mitochondrial DNA genome sequence of Ussuri catfish ( Pseudobagrus ussuriensis) was determined. The mitochondrial genome sequence is a circular molecule with 16,536 bp in length. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions. The nucleotide acid composition of the entire mitogenome is 31.79% for A, 26.84% for T, 14.87% for G, and 26.50% for C, showing a high A+T content. The complete mitogenome sequence of P. ussuriensis can be used in the studies on molecular systematics, conservation genetics, and stock evaluation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
