The complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater crab Sinolapotamon patellifer (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamoidea)

摘要

We report the complete mitochondrial genome of Sinolapotamon patellifer for the first time, which is found to be 16,547 base pairs in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and one non-coding AT-rich region known as the D-loop. In addition, the mitogenome has 17 intergenic regions ranging from 1 to 1512?bp in length. The mitochondrial genome of S. patellifer is the first mitochondrial genome under the genus Sinolapamon , providing DNA data for species identification, enriching the species diversity of Brachyura, and providing a basis for further studies on population genetics and phylogenetics.
