Abstract
The mitochondrial genome of Sargassum patens was completely sequenced. This mitogenome is a circular molecule of 34,844 bp in length and had an overall GC content of 36.20%. The mitogenome contains 37 protein-coding, three rRNA, 25 tRNA genes and two conserved open reading frames (ORFs). The Maximum-likelihood (ML) tree showed that S. patens has a closer relationship with S. aquifolium.
