title: The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Belligobio nummifer (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae).
abstract: We determined the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Belligobio nummifer, which is known as a cyprinid fish in mainland China, with a long polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. The total length of B. nummifer mitogenome is 16,610 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs genes and a noncoding control region. The overall base composition of B. nummifer is 29.74% for A, 26.12% for T, 17.18% for G, and 26.97% for C, with a slight AT bias of 55.86%. The complete mitogenomic data may provide more informative for phylogenetic approach for gudgeons phylogeny.
