The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Belligobio nummifer (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae).

We determined the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Belligobio nummifer, which is known as a cyprinid fish in mainland China, with a long polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. The total length of B. nummifer mitogenome is 16,610 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs genes and a noncoding control region.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Gobiobotia intermedia (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Cyprinid fish Gobiobotia intermedia (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae) was determined. The complete mitogenome sequence has 16,608 bp and contains the usual 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and a non-coding control region, as those found in other vertebrates, with the gene order identical to that of typical vertebrates. The overall base composition of the heavy strand shows T 26.

Phylogeography and genetic differentiation among populations of the Moon Turban Snail Lunella granulata Gmelin, 1791 (Gastropoda: Turbinidae).

We examined the genetic variation and phylogeographic relationships among 10 populations of Lunella granulata from mainland China, Penghu Archipelago, Taiwan Island, and Japan using mitochondrial COI and 16S markers. A total of 45 haplotypes were obtained in 112 specimens, and relatively high levels of haplotype diversity (h = 0.903) and low levels of nucleotide diversity (π = 0.
