Abstract
The genus Horabagrus comprised of two species of freshwater catfish endemic to peninsular India, H. brachysoma and H. nigricollaris. Compared to H. brachysoma, H. nigricollaris (black collared catfish) distribution is very much limited and the species is under the threat of extinction. In the present study we have sequenced and analysed the complete mitochondrial genome of H. nigricollaris. The mitochondrial genome is 16561 bp in length that consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNA genes with a control region (D-loop). The overall base composition was A: 31.3 %, T: 25.4 %, G: 15.2 % and C: 28 %. Most frequently used codon was CUA which codes for the amino acid Leucine. Comparative analysis of H. nigricollaris mitogenome demonstrated a close similarity with its sister species H. brachysoma in composition, gene order and orientation. The mitogenome characterised in this study can form a primary genomic resource for further research on this endangered catfish.
期刊介绍：
Ecological Genetics and Genomics publishes ecological studies of broad interest that provide significant insight into ecological interactions or/ and species diversification. New data in these areas are published as research papers, or methods and resource reports that provide novel information on technologies or tools that will be of interest to a broad readership. Complete data sets are shared where appropriate. The journal also provides Reviews, and Perspectives articles, which present commentary on the latest advances published both here and elsewhere, placing such progress in its broader biological context. Topics include: -metagenomics -population genetics/genomics -evolutionary ecology -conservation and molecular adaptation -speciation genetics -environmental and marine genomics -ecological simulation -genomic divergence of organisms
