Abstract excerpt
Recent studies on the mitochondrial genome have suggested that the duplications of tRNA and tandem repeats in the control region are important changes that are related to species diversity. This paper reports the study of mitogenomes from five Pampus (Perciformes, Stromateidae) species with very similar morphology. A duplicated tRNA(Met) gene in the tRNA-IQM region is present in Pampus sp. and P. punctatissimus....
