title: Complete mitochondrial genome of Lernaea cyprinacea (Copepoda: Cyclopoida).
abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome of Lernaea cyprinacea is 14,656 bp in size, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, two rRNA genes (12S and 16S), as well as two non-coding regions (NCRs, the control regions). The genome organization, nucleotide composition and codon usage do not differ significantly from other Copepodas. The complete mitogenome sequence information of L. cyprinacea provides useful data for further studies on phylogenetics, stock evaluation and conservation genetics.
