Pimelodus maculatus (Siluriformes, Pimelodidae): complete mtDNA sequence of an economically important fish from the São Francisco river basin

Pimelodus maculatus is an important commercial fish found in the São Francisco and Paraná river basins. NGS was used to sequence the mtDNA of P. maculatus. The mtDNA was annotated and aligned with that of 25 other fish species to enable phylogenetic analysis. The complete mtDNA molecule had 16,561 b...

Sumario:Pimelodus maculatus is an important commercial fish found in the São Francisco and Paraná river basins. NGS was used to sequence the mtDNA of P. maculatus. The mtDNA was annotated and aligned with that of 25 other fish species to enable phylogenetic analysis. The complete mtDNA molecule had 16,561 bp and its GC content was 43.7%; the structure was similar to that of other vertebrates: 2 rRNA, 22 tRNA, 13 protein-coding genes, and a D-loop region containing 914 bp. Phylogenetic analysis yielded a tree with a high bootstrap coefficient that was coherent with the actual phylogeny of the species.
