Abstract
The common strain black carp (Cyprinus carpio var. baisenensis), known for its black skin is cultured in the integrated rice-agriculture system and non-escape property under torrential floods. The total mitogenome length of Cyprinus carpio var. baisenensis obtained in this study was 16,478bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2rRNA genes (large and small), a light strand origin of replication, and one major non-coding region. By providing the complete mitochondrial genomes of Cyprinus carpio var. baisenensis, we will further understand the phylogenetic relationships within genus.
