Abstract

In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequences of cyprinid freshwater fish, Microphysogobio jeoni, belonging to the subfamily Gobioninae in the order Cypriniformes. The complete mitogenome of M. jeoni was 16,602 bp in length and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs. The gene order was identical with other Microphysogobio species. The overall nucleotide composition of M. jeoni was A + T: 56.1% and G + C: 43.9%, with slightly AT bias. In the phylogenetic tree, M. jeoni and other congeneric species clearly formed a monophyletic clade, and each species distinguished against each other well.
