Complete mitochondrial genome of Inimicus didactylus (Pallas, 1769) and its phylogenetic analysis

Inimicus didactylus is a venomous fish belonging to the family Synanceiidae, which is closely related to the true stonefishes (Synanceiidae, Synanceia spp.). Here, we employed high-throughput sequencing technology to assemble and annotate the complete mitochondrial genome of I. didactylus. The mitoc...

Description
Summary:Inimicus didactylus is a venomous fish belonging to the family Synanceiidae, which is closely related to the true stonefishes (Synanceiidae, Synanceia spp.). Here, we employed high-throughput sequencing technology to assemble and annotate the complete mitochondrial genome of I. didactylus. The mitochondrial genome, with a length of 16,670 base pairs, exhibits A-T bias in its base composition (58.19%) and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicates a close relationship between I. didactylus and I. japonicus. This study provides a genomic resource that enhances ecology and evolution researches on Synanceiidae species.
