| Description | Journal: Mitochondrial DNA Part B In this study, the complete mitogenome of a new species, Johnius taiwanensis (Chao et al. 2019 Chao NL , Chang CW , Chen MS , Guo CC , Lin BA , Liou YY , Shen KN , Liu M . 2019. Johnius taiwanensis, a new species of Sciaenidae from the Taiwan Strait, with a key to Johnius species from Chinese waters. Zootaxa. 4651(2):259–270. [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar] ) was obtained. Its mitogenome is 18,451 bp in length, consisting of 37 genes with the typical gene order and direction of transcription in vertebrates. Gene rearrangement was found in J. taiwanensis. The overall nucleotide composition is: 24.2% A; 18.0% C; 21.1% G, and 36.7% T. Sizes of the 22 tRNA genes range from 66 to 75 bp. Two start codons (ATG and GTG) and three stop codons (TAG, AGA and TAA/TA/T) were detected in 13 protein-coding genes. In the Bayesian tree based on the complete mitogenomes of 26 species (including J. taiwanensis) from the family Sciaenidae, all nodes were strongly supported. The result shows that J. taiwanensis was placed as sister to the Trewavas croaker J. trewavasae of the same genus. The mechanism of gene rearrangement in the genus Johnius merits further investigation. |
