Abstract
Acorssocheilus wuyiensis is an endemic south China stream-dwelling cyprinid species. In this study, we decoded the complete mitogenome of Acorssocheilus wuyiensis for the first time by using whole genome sequencing approach. The complete mitogenome is 16,594 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and one D-loop control region. Only ND6 and other eight tRNA genes are encoded on the L-strand while most of these genes are located in the H-strand. Its overall base composition is A: 31.1%, C: 28.0%, G: 16.2% and T: 24.7%. The complete mitogenome of the Chinese barred species of Cyprinidae could provide a basic data for further phylogenetic and conversational analysis.
