TL;DR
This study sequenced mitochondrial genomes of eight Carangidae fish species to clarify their taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships.
Contribution
The first complete mitochondrial genome sequences for Scomberoides tol, Carangoides orthogrammus, and Caranx sexfasciatus are reported.
Findings
Mitochondrial genomes of eight Carangidae species were sequenced and analyzed.
Phylogenetic analysis suggested Uraspis secunda and U. helvola are synonymous.
Intrageneric genetic distances were unexpectedly greater than intergeneric distances in some cases.
Abstract
The Carangidae family is a prime focus for both deep-sea fishing and aquaculture. However, taxonomic controversies have limited Carangidae research. This study assembled the mitochondrial genomes of eight Carangidae species using second-generation sequencing and bioinformatics, then performed phylogenetic analyses. Mitochondrial genome sizes were: Megalaspis cordyla (16,565 bp; OR703829), Elagatis bipinnulata (16,543 bp; OR668919), Scomberoides tol (16,689 bp; OR668917), Selaroides leptolepis (16,560 bp; OR703831), Decapterus maruadsi (16,540 bp; OP459436), Alepes kleinii (16,570 bp; OR668918), Caranx sexfasciatus (16,595 bp; OR703830), and Carangoides orthogrammus (16,604 bp; OR668920). This study provides the first complete mitochondrial genome sequences of the species for Scomberoides tol, Carangoides orthogrammus, and Caranx sexfasciatus. The genomes contained two rRNA genes, 13…
