Data from: Two complete mitochondrial genome sequences of white-spotted char Salvelinus leucomaenis (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae)

The comparison of KF974451–KF974452 sequences of mitochondrial genome of white-spotted char S. leucomaenis (Shedko, 2014) and KF513161 sequence of mitochondrial genome of S. leucomaenis (Zhang et al., 2013) as well as NC_000860 ( S. fontinalis ), NC_000861 ( S. alpinus ) and KC897653 ( Parahucho perryi ) sequences by using the RDP4 software (Martin et al., 2010) revealed that the KF513161 sequence is a combination of sequences from two distinct (4.9% divergence) mitochondrial DNA lineages – lineage of S. fontinalis , represented by NC_000860 sequence (positions 1000–15,359 and 15,869–16,337 in KF513161 sequence; 0.2% divergence) and white-spotted char, represented by the KF974451 and KF974452 sequences (positions 15,360–15,868 and 16,338–999 in KF513161 sequence; 0.6–1.0% divergence).
