Abstract
Schizothorax lissolabiatus is a widely distributed fish species in Lancang River, Yuanjiang River, Pearl River, Nujiang River in China. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of S. lissolabiatus from Yuanjiang River (the upper Red River) has been sequenced, which is 16,583 bp in length and contains 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes and 2 main non-coding regions: origin of light-strand replication and control region. Except for eight tRNA and ND6 genes, most of the genes are encoded on the heavy strand. The length of mitochondrial genome, the order, composition and anticodons of all genes are exactly similar to that of S. dolichonema. The phylogenetic tree suggested S. prenanti, S. dolichonema and S. lissolabiatus may have closer affinities than other fish of the genus Schizothorax.
