The ya-fish, Schizothorax prenanti, is a well-known commercial cold-water fish species with the hexaploid karyotype distributed in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and its tributaries on the western Sichuan Plateau in China. The complete mitogenome of S. prenanti is 16,587 bp in length, containing 37 genes of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and a control region (D-loop). The gene nucleotide composition of S. prenanti is 29.6% A, 25.4% T, 27.1% C and 17.9% G, with a slight AT bias of 55.0%. The complete mitogenome sequence of S. prenanti could provide useful data for further studies on genetic structure and diversity, as well as the artificial cultivation and breeding of S. prenanti.

Background: Environmental temperature is critical in regulating biological functions in fish. S. prenanti is a kind of cold-water fish, but of which we have little knowledge about the metabolic adaptation and physiological responses to long-term cold acclimation.

Total dissolved gas (TDG) supersaturation caused by flood discharge water poses a threat to vital activities such as migration, foraging, and evasion in fish species upstream of the Yangtze River, which may impair the ability of fish to pass through fishways during the migration period, causing poor utilization of fishways. Previous studies have shown that TDG supersaturation reduces the critical and burst swimming abilities of fish, suggesting potential adverse effects on swimming performance. However, studies focusing on the impact of TDG on fish swimming behavior in experimental vertical-slot fishways remain scarce.

Although developing large-scale hydropower cascades in the upper Yangtze River effectively improves the hydropower resource utilization, it produces total dissolved gas (TDG) supersaturation. In the flood season, the high level of TDG supersaturation (TDGS) frequently occurs in the downstream of dams, causing migratory fish to suffer from gas bubble trauma (GBT) and reducing their survival and swimming ability. Currently, there is a deficiency in particular approaches to evaluate the ecological hazard posed by TDGS on migratory fish as they traverse different flow velocities within their migratory routes.
