title: The complete mitochondrial genome of the Southern bluefin tuna Thunnus maccoyii.
abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome of the juvenile Southern bluefin tuna Thunnus maccoyii collected from Sea of Japan was determined by next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome is a circular molecule 16,529 bp in length, including the typical structure of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and a control region. The TAS, central CSB and CSB were detected in the control region. The gene contents of the mitogenome are identical to those observed in most bony fishes.
