Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Nov;27(6):4397-4398. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2015.1089540. Epub 2015 Oct 17.
We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of the Madagascar ground gecko Paroedura picta (Squamata: Gekkonidae). The mitogenome is 17 220 base pairs long and conforms to the typical vertebrate gene composition and arrangement, i.e. 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 1919 bp long control region. We reconstructed phylogenetic relationships of P. picta and representatives of nine other genera from the family Gekkonidae and calculated mean p-distances for all 13 protein-coding mitochondrial genes. The lowest mean p-distances were found in cytochrome oxidase subunit I and III genes (COI and COIII) indicating their usefulness for elucidating deeper phylogenetic relationships.
我们对马达加斯加地壁虎（Paroedura picta，有鳞目：壁虎科）的线粒体基因组进行了全序列测定。该线粒体基因组长度为17220个碱基对，符合典型的脊椎动物基因组成和排列方式，即包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因以及长度为1919 bp的控制区。我们重建了马达加斯加地壁虎与壁虎科其他九个属的代表物种之间的系统发育关系，并计算了所有13个线粒体蛋白质编码基因的平均p距离。细胞色素氧化酶亚基I和III基因（COI和COIII）的平均p距离最低，表明它们在阐明更深层次的系统发育关系方面具有实用性。
