TL;DR
This paper reports the full mitochondrial genome of a bat species from China and shows its close genetic relationship to another bat species.
Contribution
The first complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis of Murina yushuensis.
Findings
The mitochondrial genome of Murina yushuensis is 16,520 bp long and includes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one control region.
Phylogenetic analysis shows Murina yushuensis is closely related to Murina eleryi.
The study provides genetic data for future taxonomic and phylogenetic research on Murina bats.
Abstract
In this study, a complete mitochondrial genome of Murina yushuensis, sampled from Sichuan, China, was sequenced using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 S4 platform. Results showed that the mitochondrial genome was a circular structure with a total length of 16,520 bp, comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and 1 control region. Phylogenetic analysis based on 13 protein coding genes from limited mitochondrial genome data of 10 species of Murina revealed that M. yushuensis is closely related to M. eleryi. This study provides genetic data for further taxonomic and phylogenetic researches on Murina bats.
