The complete mitochondrial genome of middle-sized form of Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae) from the South China Sea

The purpleback flying squid (Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis) is a pelagic squid with tremendous potential for commercial exploitation. Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis comprises two forms in the South China Sea, medium-sized form and dwarf form. In this study, we described the complete mitochondrial genome of...

Sumario:The purpleback flying squid (Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis) is a pelagic squid with tremendous potential for commercial exploitation. Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis comprises two forms in the South China Sea, medium-sized form and dwarf form. In this study, we described the complete mitochondrial genome of medium-sized form of S. oualaniensis. The genome is 20,309 bp in length, encoding the standard set of 13 protein-coding genes, 20 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes, with circular organization. The overall base composition of the whole mitochondrial genome was A (35.86%), T (33.36%), G (11.63%), and C (19.15%) with an AT bias of 69.22%. The longest protein-coding gene of these species was ND5, whereas the shortest ATP8.
