Sequences the mitochondrial genome of Sphaeramia nematoptera, revealing its phylogenetic relationships in Apogonidae.
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Sphaeramia nematoptera (Bleeker, 1856) was sequenced and characterized for the first time. The 16,563 bp circular mitogenome encompasses 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, two rRNAs, and one control region. Its nucleotide composition is 27.0% A, 25.4% T, 30.5% C, and 17.1% G, indicating an AT bias of 52.4%. Phylogenetic analysis confirms that S. nematoptera forms a well-supported monophyletic lineage with maximum (100%) bootstrap support. This study contributes valuable molecular resources for resolving the phylogenetic relationships within the Apogonidae.
