The complete mitochondrial genome of Hemigrammus bleheri (Characiformes: Hemigrammus) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2019 Complete mitochondrial genome of the characiform fish Hemigrammus bleheri was characterized in the present study. The whole mitogenome was 17,021 bp in size and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs genes, a control region, and origin of light-strand replication.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paracheirodon axelrodi (Characiformes: Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2019 The Paracheirodon axelrodi is an important freshwater fish in the Amazon basin of South America, more expensive than Paracheirodon innesi. Here, we describe the complete 17,100 base pair (bp) mitochondrial genome of Paracheirodon axelrodi mohavensis. The mitogenome has a nucleotide base composition of A (29.62%), T (29.41%), G (15.39%), and C (25.62%),

An Insight into the Chromosomal Evolution of Lebiasinidae (Teleostei, Characiformes) [PDF]
Genes, 2020 Lebiasinidae fishes have been historically neglected by cytogenetical studies. Here we present a genomic comparison in eleven Lebiasinidae species, in addition to a review of the ribosomal DNA sequences distribution in this family. With that, we develop ten sets of experiments in order to hybridize the genomic DNA of representative species from the ...
