“…The structure of the mitochondrial genome of the newly sequenced S. robustus and B. nototaenia are similar to those of other cichlids characterized so far example., F. rostatus , and A. geoffreyi (Qi et al, 2016), they have the same types, number, and genomic features. The sequence data were deposited in GenBank under accession KX595333 and KX631426, respectively.…”

This present research work reports the comparative analysis of the entire nucleotide sequence of mitochondrial genomes of Serranochromis robustus and Buccochromis nototaenia and phylogenetic analyses of their protein-coding genes in order to establish their phylogenetic relationship within Cichlids. The mitochondrial genomes of S. robustus and B. nototaenia are 16,583 and 16,580 base pairs long, respectively, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and one control region (D-loop) which is 888 and 887 base pairs long, respectively, showing the same gene order and identical number of gene or regions with other well-elucidated mitogenomes of Cichlids. However, with exception of cytochrome-c oxidase subunit-1 (COX-1) gene, all the identified PCGs were initiated by ATG-codons. Structurally, 11 tRNA genes in B. nototaenia species and 9 tRNA genes in S. robustus species, folded into typical clover-leaf secondary structure created by the regions of self-complementarity within tRNA. All the 22 tRNA genes in both species lack variable loop. Moreover, 28 genes which include 12-protein-coding genes are encoded on the H-strand and the remaining 9 genes including one protein-coding gene are encoded on the L-strand. Thirteen sequences of concatenated mitochondrial protein-coding genes were aligned using MUSCLE, and the phylogenetic analyses performed using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference showed that S. robustus and B. nototaenia had a broad phylogenetic relationship. These results may be a useful tool in resolving higher-level relationships in organisms and a useful dataset for studying the evolution of the Cichlidae mitochondrial genome, since Cichlids are well-known model species in the study of evolutionary biology, because of their extreme morphological, biogeographical, parental care behavior for eggs and larvae and phylogenetic diversities.

The present study reported the complete mitochondrial genome of Alticorpus geoffreyi for the first time. The mitochondrial genome of A. geoffreyi possesses 16,578 bp in length, involving 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA, 13 protein-coding genes and one control region. In addition, its GC content is 45.82% that is similar to that of Astatotilapia calliptera (the GC content of 45.90%). Based on the complete mitochondrial genomes of 14 closely related species, the phylogenetic tree was further made to show their phylogenic relationship. The results will serve as a useful dataset for studying the evolution of Cichlidae mitochondrial genome.

“…In addition, its GC content is 45.99% (27.42% A, 26.59% T, 30.10% C, and 15.88% G) that is similar to that of Alticorpus geoffreyi (the GC content of 45.82%). Based on the complete mitochondrial genomes of the Lethrinops lethrinus, Alticorpus geoffreyi (Genbank accession NC_028033), and other 12 closely related species, we also used MEGA6.06 to construct the phylogenetic tree by Maximum likelihood method (Figure 1) (Stamatakis et al 2002;Tamura et al 2013;Qi et al 2015).

In the present study, for the first time, we reported the complete mitochondrial genome of Lethrinops lethrinus , which is 16,582 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA, 22 transfer RNA genes and a control zone. Moreover, its GC content is 45.99% (27.42% A, 26.59% T, 30.10% C, and 15.88% G), similar to that of Alticorpus geoffreyi (GC content of 45.82%). We further made the phylogenetic tree on the complete mitochondrial genomes of the above two species and other 12 closely related species to show their phylogenic relationship. The above results would facilitate our understanding of the evolution of Cichlidae mitochondrial genome.
