Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of Cirrhinus mrigala was determined using the polymerase chain reaction. The mitogenome (16,594 bp) has the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and one control region. The overall base composition on the heavy strand was as follows: A: 32.0%, G: 15.5%, C: 28.0%, T: 24.55% and the A+T content: 56.5%. The control region contains a dinucleotide repeat motif, (TA)14, a termination-associated sequence and three conserved sequence blocks. These mitogenome sequence data would play an important role in population genetics and the molecular taxonomy of cultivable cyprinids in India. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
