Abstract

Liparis tessellatus is a cubed snailfish that inhabits the northwestern region of the Pacific Ocean. The family Liparidae is difficult to distinguish morphologically due to the typical body color and shape variation, which are used interchangeably due to the differences in local dialects. Therefore, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of L. tesellatus. The mitochondrial genome length of L. tesellatus was determined as 17,221 bp, which consisted of 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and a control region (D-loop). The base composition was as follows: 28.6% of A, 29.5% of T, 26.5% of C, and 15.4% of G. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that L. tesellatus clustered together with different species of the genus Liparis. Thus, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence provided herein would further help in understanding the evolution of Liparis species.

摘要

Liparis tessellatus是居住在太平洋西北地区的立方蜗牛鱼。由于典型的身体颜色和形状变化，Liparidae科很难在形态上进行区分，由于局部方言的不同，它们可以互换使用。因此，我们确定了特斯拉特氏菌的完整线粒体基因组序列。tesellatus线粒体的基因组长度被确定为17,221 bp，由22个tRNA基因，两个rRNA基因，13个蛋白编码基因（PCG）和一个控制区（D-loop）组成。基本组成如下：A的28.6％，T的29.5％，C的26.5％和G的15.4％。系统发育分析表明，tesellatus与利帕里酵母属的不同物种聚集在一起。因此，本文提供的完整的线粒体基因组序列将进一步帮助理解Liparis物种的进化。
