Mitochondrial genome of Japanese amberjack, Seriola quinqueradiata, and yellowtail amberjack, Seriola lalandi

Abstract

The mitochondrial genomes of Seriola quinqueradiata and S. lalandi were 16,539 and 16,535 base pairs long, respectively, whose organizations were similar to those of other bony fishes. The sequence similarity of two species was 93% in the mitochondrial whole genome. Between each coding gene, rRNA, and control region, the highest similarity was 98% in ATP8 and lowest similarity was 87% in the control region. Phylogenetic analysis of Carangidae mt 12 protein-coding genes showed that Seriola and Carangoides do not form a monophyletic genus.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis for Inimicus japonicus (Scorpaeniformes: Synanceiidae)

“…The mitogenome was similar to other bony fish such as black sea bream Acanthopagrus schlegelii (Ma et al. 2016 ), Japanese amberjack Seriola quinqueradiata , Yellowtail amberjack Seriola lalandi (Oh and Jung 2019 ), and Longneck croaker Pseudotolithus typus (Kim et al. 2020 ).…”

Comparative Mitogenome Characterization of Cryptic Asian Seabass (Lates calcarifer) in Captivity within Peninsular Malaysia

“…Table 1 showed that genes were mostly encoded on the heavy(H) strand, excluding ND6 genes and eight tRNA genes (Gln, Ala, Asn, Cys, Tyr, Ser, Glu, Pro) which were encoded by light (L) strand. Like other vertebrates such as Acanthopagrus schlegelii [24] and Seriola lalandi [25], the D-loop was situated between tRNA-Pro and tRNA-Phe gene. The lowest GC content was found in tRNA-Arg (30.43 %) and the highest in tRNA-Cys (58.21%) of S15.…”
