Complete mitochondrial genome of the stone char (Salmoniformes, Salmonidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced in two individuals of stone char . The genome sequences are 16,654 bp in size, and the gene arrangement, composition and size are very similar to the salmonid fish genomes published previously. The low level of sequence divergence detected between the genome of and the GenBank complete mitochondrial genomes of the white char (KT266870 and KT266871), the Northern Dolly Varden char (KJ746618) and the Arctic char (AF154851) may likely be due to recent divergence and/or historical hybridization and interspecific replacement of mtDNA.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the white char Salvelinus albus (Salmoniformes, Salmonidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced in two individuals of white char Salvelinus albus. The genome sequences are 16 653 bp in size, and the gene arrangement, composition, and size are very similar to the salmonid fish genomes published previously. The low level of sequence divergence detected between the genome of S.

Complete mitochondrial genomes of the anadromous and resident forms of the lamprey Lethenteron camtschaticum.

The complete mitochondrial genomes were sequenced in anadromous and resident forms of the lamprey Lethenteron camtschaticum. The sizes of the genomes in the two isolates are 16,245 and 16,295 bp. The gene arrangement, base composition, and size of the two sequenced genomes are similar to the lamprey genomes previously published.
