Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced in two individuals of Taranetz charr Salvelinus taranetzi. The genome sequences are 16,654 bp in size, and the gene arrangement, composition, and size are very similar to the charr genomes published previously. The difference between the two genomes studied is low, 0.05%. The present study confirms the independent taxonomic status of S. taranetzi within the genus Salvelinus. The level of sequence divergence between S. taranetzi and Salvelinus alpinus inferred from the complete mitochondrial genomes is relatively low (1.1%), indicating recent divergence of the species.
