title: Complete mitochondrial genome of Ctenopharyngodon idella var. Gold grass carp and its intraspecific comparison.
abstract: We determined the complete mitochondrial genome (Mitogome) of Ctenopharyngodon idella var. gold grass carp (C. idella var.) (Accession No.:KT894100) and compered it with a previously published mitogenome (Accession No.:NC010288.1) of Chinese common grass carp. The total length of mitogenome is 16 609 bp with 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. The nucleotide compositions of the L-strand are 31.87% for A, 26.20% for T, 15.68% for G, 26.26% for C. Most of the protein-coding genes began with an ATG start codon except for COX1 and ND3 gene. The sequence similarity was 99.81% between each other. There were 32 variation loci obtained, including of 23 transitions, 7 transversions and 2 INDELs.
