The complete mitochondrial genome of a euphausiid species: Pseudeuphausia sinica (Euphausiacea: Euphausiidae)

Abstract We describe the mitogenome sequence of Pseudeuphausia sinica collected in the adjacent waters of the Yangtze River Estuary. The assembled mitogenome is 16,192？bp in length and consists 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer-RNA genes, 2 ribosomal-RNA genes, and 1 non-coding region. The most common start codon for 13 PCGs is ATG and the most common termination codon is TAA. The overall G？+？C content was only 28.26% in the heavy strand. The result of phylogenetic analysis showed that the relationship of P. sinica was close to the species in the same order
