Abstract:
Garra kempi, a small-sized economic fish, is mainly distributed in Tibet of China. In this study, we successfully sequenced the first mitochondrial genome of G. kempi. The mitogenome is 17 104 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 control regions (D-loop). Unlike the typical mitochondrial genome organization in vertebrate, the tRNAPro gene of G. kempi is located between two control regions, and a 246 bp repeat unit is identified in the second control region. In this paper, we utilized 12 protein-coding genes of G. kempi and other 10 closely species to construct the species phylogenetic tree to verify the accuracy of G. kempi.
