Complete mitochondrial genome of the hybrid flounder Platichthys stellatus (♀) × Verasper variegatus (♂)
The starry flounder (Platichthys stellatus) and the spotted halibut (Verasper variegatus) are economically important flatfish species in Korea. The hybrid P. stellatus (♀) × V. variegatus (♂) has attracted attention in aquaculture. In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of this hybrid flatfish, obtained using next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome is 16,874 bp in length and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the hybrid clusters with its maternal species, P. stellatus, confirming strict maternal inheritance of mitochondrial DNA. These findings provide genomic resources for phylogenetics and hybrid flatfish breeding.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the hybrid flounder Paralichthys olivaceus (♀) × Verasper variegatus (♂)
Two generations were hatched after artificially crossing Paralichthys olivaceus and Verasper variegatus, commercially valuable species of Pleuronectidae. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic relationships of P. olivaceus (♀) × V. variegatus (♂). The mitogenome is 16,946 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes. Phylogenetically, it clustered with P. olivaceus within Pleuronectidae, providing a justification for the lack of information on flounder hybrids. Analysis of genetic information and genetic mapping studies of individuals with intermediate traits between the parents support previous research suggesting that it has economic value.

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis of the hybrid flat fish Platichthys stellatus (♀) × Platichthys bicoloratus (♂)
We report the complete mitochondrial genome of the hybrid flounder Platichthys stellatus (♀) Platichthys bicoloratus (♂). The mitochondrial genome contained 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 1 control region (D-loop), for a total length of 16,874 bp. The nucleotide composition of the heavy strand was 29.15% C, 26.99% A, 26.14% T, and 17.71% G. A maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis showed that the hybrid flat fish was a member of the same clade as P. stellatus (maternal inheritance). Our findings add to the extant data on the subfamily Pleuronecidae and provide insight into their molecular phylogeny and taxonomy.- 2 October 2024
