The complete mitochondrial genome of the first individual Rhinogobio typus collected from the
Yellow River were sequenced and compared with the previously reported complete
mitochondrial sequence of Rhinogobio typus from the Yangtze River. The length of their
circular mitochondrial genome was determined to be 16 599 and 16 608 bp respectively. The
comparison of two mitochondrial genomes revealed 237 base pair substitutions and 17
insertions or deletions (indels), including 182 base pair substitutions and 2 indels in proteincoding
region. Phylogenetic tree was constructed based on complete mitogenomes of the two
populations and closely related 13 teleost species to assess their phylogenic relationship and
evolution.
