International audience. The complete mitochondrial genome of the oyster Crassostrea belcheri from the Can Gio mangrove in Vietnam has been sequenced. It consists of a circular DNA molecule of 21020 base pairs (bp), codingfor 12 proteins, 20 transfer RNAs, and two ribosomal RNAs. Like the mitogenomes of Crassostrea iredalei and Crassostreasp. DB1, it contains a non-coding region and two ORFs. TheC. belcheri mitogenome provides information that could improve the molecular phylogeny of Asian oysters and be useful to the development of oyster aquaculture in South East Asia.
