AI Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on differentiating two often misidentified catfish species using a molecular approach.
- The researchers sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genomes of the catfish from the Pahang River, revealing genome lengths of 16,465 bp and 16,470 bp.
- This research marks the first report of complete mitochondrial genome sequences for these species and provides a valuable genetic resource for future studies.
Article Abstract
The catfish, and , are often misidentified between each other due to their similar morphology. Thus, the current study was conducted to differentiate them based on a molecular approach. The complete mitochondrial genomes of and obtained from the Pahang River (Peninsular Malaysia) were sequenced, assembled, and annotated using next-generation sequencing (NGS). A 16,465 bp and 16,470 bp length mitogenome sequence of and , respectively, was generated, each containing 13 protein genes, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs, typical of most vertebrates. This is the first report of the complete mitochondrial genome sequences of and . These data are a valuable genetic resource for future studies of these two commercially important species.
