Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Sep;27(5):3687-8. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2015.1079856. Epub 2015 Sep 14.
Garrulax elliotii belonged to Passeriformes, one of the members of Timaliidae family. It was a kind of unique and resident species habitat in the evergreen broadleaf forest and alpine shrub belt. The complete mitochondrial genome of G. elliotii was constituted by 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) genes, two Ribosomal RNA (12SrRNA and 16SrRNA) genes, and two control regions (D-loop) genes. ND6 and eight tRNA genes (tRNA(Gln), tRNA(Ala), tRNA(Asn), tRNA(Cys), tRNA(Tyr), tRNA(Ser(UCN)), tRNA(Pro), and tRNA(Glu)) encoded on light strand, and the other 12 protein-coding genes encoded on heavy strand. Mitochondrial genes had been widely used in studies of phylogenetic relationships, molecular diagnostics, and an important tool for genome architecture, it has a significance mean for us provided the complete mitochondrial genome of G. elliotii to the Timaliidae family construction in the future.
白颊噪鹛属于雀形目,是画眉科的成员之一。它是一种独特的留鸟,栖息于常绿阔叶林和高山灌丛带。白颊噪鹛的完整线粒体基因组由13个蛋白质编码基因(PCGs)、22个转运核糖核酸(tRNA)基因、两个核糖体RNA(12SrRNA和16SrRNA)基因以及两个控制区(D-loop)基因组成。ND6和8个tRNA基因(tRNA(Gln)、tRNA(Ala)、tRNA(Asn)、tRNA(Cys)、tRNA(Tyr)、tRNA(Ser(UCN))、tRNA(Pro)和tRNA(Glu))在轻链上编码,其他12个蛋白质编码基因在重链上编码。线粒体基因已广泛应用于系统发育关系研究、分子诊断,是基因组结构研究的重要工具,提供白颊噪鹛的完整线粒体基因组对未来画眉科的构建具有重要意义。
