The complete 16,532-nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial genome of the shorthead catfish (Pelteobagrus eupogon) was determined using the long and accurate polymerase chain reaction method, and compared with the mitochondrial genome sequences of 49 other catfish species belonging to the order Siluriformes. The locations of protein-coding genes and ribosomal ribonucleic acids (RNAs) were iden...

The aquaculture industry is dependent on rich fish resources in water bodies. Human activities have led to a rapid decline of species. In Asia, the Pangasiidae family highly valued for its potential survival and fillet meat. DNA barcoding taxonomic method using genetic markers organisms mitochondrial (mt DNA) identification. phylogeny identification Pangasianodon hypophthalmus subcontinent grea...

Pangasiids are an economically significant group of catfish, and many pangasiids threatened in the wild from anthropogenic pressures, including increases fishing pressure, habitat degradation, improperly managed aquaculture practices. This study demonstrates usage DNA barcoding Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I (COI) gene as identification tool detecting potentially threatening invasive pangasiid sp...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Southern catfish (Silurus meridionalis) and the Chinese catfish (S. asotus), was determined using the long and accurate polymerase chain reaction (LA-PCR) method. The mitochondrial DNA nucleotide sequences of S. meridionalis and S. asotus were compared with those of 47 other catfish species in the same order. The total length of mitochondrial DNA for S. ...
