Abstract

We present the complete mitochondrial genome of Nibea coibor in this study. The mitochondrial genome is 16,502 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. All of them are encoded on the heavy strand except ND6 and 8 tRNA genes on the light strand. The nucleotide compositions of the light strand were 31.62% of G, 26.88% of T, 25.19% of A and 16.31% of C. Three types of initiation codons are ATA (ATP6), ATG (ND2, COXI, COXII, ATP8, COXIII, ND3, ND4L, ND4, ND5, ND6, Cytb) and GTG (ND1), and 3 types of termination codons are AGA (COXI), T (ND2, COXII, ND3, ND4) and TAA (ATP6, ATP8, COXIII, ND4L, ND5, ND6, Cytb, ND1). There are 13 intergenic spacers, 7 gene overlaps and no tandem repeat sequence. Gene arrangement and distribution are consistent with the typical vertebrates.
