Abstract:
Multicolor angelfish (Centropyge multicolor) and Yellowhead angelfish (C. joculator) are in the "multicolor species complex". In this study, we used the next-generation sequencing method to deduce two complete mitogenomes of C. multicolor and C. joculator for the first time. The assembled mitogenome, consisting of 16,791 bp and 16,778 bp, showing 99% identity to each other. Both mitogenome follow the typical vertebrate arrangement, including 13 protein coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs genes, and a non-coding control region of D-loop. D-loop contains 909 bp in C. multicolor and 896 bp in C. joculator and locates between tRNA-Pro and tRNA-Phe. The overall GC content is 46.9% for C. multicolor and 50.7% for C. joculator. Complete mitogenomes of C. multicolor and C. joculator provide essential and important DNA molecular data for phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis for "multicolor species complex".
