Characterization of complete mitochondrial genome of rice flower carp Cyprinus carpio rubrofuscus (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae)

Abstract

Rice flower carp ( Cyprinus carpio rubrofuscus ) is a subspecies of Cyprinus carpio distributed in South China. In this study, we sequenced the mitochondrial genome of C. carpio rubrofuscus using Illumina HiSeq. The complete mitochondrial genome of C. carpio rubrofuscus was 16,582 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes. The contents of the four bases in the mitochondrial DNA were A (31.89%), T (24.82%), C (27.53%), and G (15.76%). Phylogenetic analysis showed that C. carpio rubrofuscus was clustered with Cyprinus carpio and its varieties.
