title: Identification and description of the mitochondrial genome of Hemibarbus labeo (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae).
abstract: The total mitochondrial genome of Hemibarbus labeo (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae) is 16,612 bases in length. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and 2 non-coding regions. The overall nucleotide composition of the H-strand of H. labeo mitochondrial genome is A: 29.82%, G: 17.11%, T: 25.90% and C: 27.17%, respectively, with an A + T-rich feature (55.72%). These results will contribute to the natural resources conservation and species identification of H.labeo.
