Article Synopsis
- This study is the first to analyze the genome of a wild population, focusing on developing and applying microsatellite markers to understand genetic structure.
- The genome assembly was high-quality, with 31,166 protein-coding genes identified, and revealed significant gene family expansions and contractions when compared to 10 other fish genomes.
- Population genetic analysis of 120 individuals showed variations in genetic diversity, resulting in the identification of three distinct populations based on allele counts and heterozygosity.
is endemic to South Korea and inhabits small areas of the Namhangang, Bukhangang, and Imjingang Rivers in the Hangang River water system. Endemic species usually are more vulnerable than species with a wide distribution. Notably, there is a lack of basic conservation data for .

- The study examines the genetic diversity and structure of the Korean endemic aucha perch using mitochondrial DNA data, which had previously received limited research attention compared to other aspects like egg development.
- Results showed distinct populations grouped by river systems (Hangang, Nakdonggang, Geumgang, and southwest regions), indicating significant genetic differentiation among these populations.
- The findings highlight the importance of conservation efforts, revealing that the translocated Yangyang Namdaechun Stream population originated from the Hangang River, and emphasizing the need for more research on these fish species to support their preservation.
The black shinner Pseudopungtungia nigra Mori, 1935 is an endangered fish endemic to Korea. It lives in the narrow basin of the Geumgang River, Mangyeonggang River, and Ungcheoncheon Stream, which flow into the West Sea of Korea. One population of P.

Article Synopsis
- The text discusses an endangered fish species found in South Korea's Goheung Peninsula and highlights that this is the first complete mitochondrial genome report for it.
- The mitochondrial genome is 16,646 base pairs long and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a D-loop control region.
- The genome's base composition is noted, with a high A+T content of 57.65%, and phylogenetic analysis indicates its closest relation to another unspecified species.

The complete mitochondrial genome of was sequenced using a specimen collected offshore in the East Sea. The genome includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA () genes, two ribosomal RNA () genes, and a control region (D-loop), with a total length of 16,060 bp. The overall nucleotide composition was 34.
