Abstract

Abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome of shrimp Saron marmoratus was obtained and characterized in this study. This complete mitochondrial genome is 16, 330 bp in size and comprises 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. Fourteen genes were encoded by light strand and another 23 genes were encoded by heavy strand. The A + T content of the heavy-strand was 67.89%. Most PCGs had ATN as the start codon except ND4 initiated with GAT. Eleven PCGs terminated with a complete stop codon TAN, but two PCGs ( ND5 and Cytb ) had an incomplete stop codon. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that Hippolytidae shrimp may be considered as the polyphyletic taxon. These results are useful for understanding the phylogenetic relationships and evolution of Hippolytidae shrimp.
