The complete mitochondrial genome of Sicista caudata Thomas, 1907 (Rodentia: Sicistidae) and its phylogenetic analyses

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This study aimed to examine the complete mitogenome sequence of Sicista caudata Thomas, 1907. A circular double-stranded structure made up the mitochondrial genome of S. caudata. The complete length of the mitochondrial genome was 16,629 bp. The mitochondrial genome of S. caudata included 13 protein-coding genes, one control region, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one origin of L-strand replication. S. caudata was supported by bootstrap values of 100%. This study verified the evolutionary status of S. caudata in the Superfamily Dipodoidea at the molecular level.
