Abstract

Abstract: Although Mesogobio lachneri is the type species of the genus Mesogobio, its systematic position and status have remained unresolved to date. In this study, for the first time, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of M. lachneri using Sanger sequencing. It is a circular genome with a length of 16, 602 bp, comprising 22 tRNAs, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNAs, and one non-coding control region. Our phylogenetic analysis reveals that M. lachneri is the close relative of the genus Gobio, indicating that Mesogobio may be a valid genus.
