Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Dory snapper, Lutjanus fulviflamma, was determined by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) technique. The circular mitogenome of L. fulviflamma was 16,512 bp in length encoding 37 genes (13 proteins, 22 tRNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs) and 2 conserved noncoding elements; the control region (D-Loop) and the origin of light strand synthesis (OL). Among the protein-coding genes, unusual start codons were identified in ND2, COX1 and ND3 genes and incomplete stop codons were identified in seven genes. Phylogenetic analysis with the currently known mitogenomes in genus Lutjanus revealed that L. fulviflamma was most closely related to Lutjanus russellii with 91% sequence identity.
