The complete mitochondrial genome of Arius arius (Siluriformes: Ariidae). [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA B Resour, 2016
The threadfin sea catfish (Arius arius) belongs to the genus Arius in Ariidae. In this paper, we initially determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Arius arius. The mitochondrial genome is 16, 711 bp in length, with the base composition on the heavy strand: A - 29.67%, T - 25.38%, C - 29.70% and G - 15.25%.
