In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Tibetan Mastiff was reported. The total length of the mitogenome is 16,729 bp. It contains the typical structure, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 1 control region is in line with other canine animals. We further identified genome-wide variations among different canine mitochondrial genomes and indicated that the D-loop region harbors the most sequence variation, which will provide sequence variation information for the protection and utilization of the Tibetan Mastiff germplasm resource.
本研究报道了藏獒的完整线粒体基因组序列。该线粒体基因组全长16729 bp。它具有典型的结构,包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因以及1个控制区,这与其他犬科动物一致。我们进一步鉴定了不同犬科线粒体基因组之间的全基因组变异,并指出D环区域存在最多的序列变异,这将为藏獒种质资源的保护和利用提供序列变异信息。
