Abstract:
Blackchin tilapia, Sarotherodon melanotheron, is a highly salt-tolerant species in tilapias. In this paper, the complete mitochondrial genome of S. melanotheron was determined first. The mitogenome (16,627 bp) had the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 putative control region. It shared 95.1%, 93.2%, and 92.2% mitogenome sequence with Oreochromis aureus, Oreochromis niloticus, and Oreochromis mossambicus, respectively.

LBCs are made up of two pairs of conjugating homologous chromatids. Each chromatid consists of alternatively positioned regions of condensed-inactive chromatin and loosely placed-active side loops, which can be contracted and extended. The loops resemble the...
