Abstract

The full-length mitochondrial genome of the yellow catfish, Tachysurus fulvidraco was analyzed by the primer walking method. Its assembled mitochondrial genome was found to be 16,527 bp, consisting of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA gens, and 2 rRNA gens). The gene content and order of T. fulvidraco were congruent with those of typical vertebrate fishes. In the phylogenetic tree, it showed the closet relationship to the another conspecific specimen from China and Pseudobagrus koreanus and well separated from the other species in the family Bagridae.
