Description

Li and colleagues sequence the full mitochondrial genome of a small fish found only in southwest China in twenty twenty-five. The fish belongs to a carp subfamily whose family tree is unsettled. Its full ring of mitochondrial DNA was read and charted gene by gene. The team then rebuilt the subfamily tree from thirteen protein coding genes.

The genome held the usual fish gene set plus a control region. One transfer RNA broke the classic cloverleaf shape. The tree split the subfamily into two big limbs, not one clean branch. The study fish landed in the more derived limb, apart from its named kin. The genome adds a firm data point for carp taxonomy.
