Abstract
The complete mitogenome of Triplophysa cuneicephala is 16,571 bp in length with the A + T contents of 56.12%, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a putative control region. All PCGs employed ATG as the start codon, except for COI which utilized GTG as start codon. Four stop codons were observed in the PCGs, including TAA, TAG, TA and T. Phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated PCG sequences revealed that T. cuneicephala is closely related to T. robusta and T. minxianensis. This study would provide useful genetic information for future studies on phylogeny, evolutionary, and taxonomic classification in Triplophysa species.
