Pamir yak () is a yak breed from Pamir Plateau with strong adaptation to the high-elevation, cold and anoxic environments. Its complete mitochondrial genome was determined to be 16,323 bp long with a moderately asymmetric nucleotide composition, and harbors the typical set of 37 mitochondrial genes and the noncoding control region. The PCGs start with the typical ATA or ATG codons, and end with TAA, TAG or the incomplete termination codon T. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that Pamir yak is most closely related to six other yak breeds (i.e. Datong, Pali, polled, Qilian, Seron and Sunan yaks).
帕米尔牦牛是一种来自帕米尔高原的牦牛品种,对高海拔、寒冷和缺氧环境具有很强的适应能力。其完整的线粒体基因组长度为16323 bp,核苷酸组成呈中度不对称,包含一组典型的37个线粒体基因和非编码控制区。线粒体编码基因(PCGs)以典型的ATA或ATG密码子起始,以TAA、TAG或不完整的终止密码子T结束。系统发育分析表明,帕米尔牦牛与其他六个牦牛品种(即大通牦牛、帕里牦牛、无角牦牛、祁连牦牛、斯布牦牛和肃南牦牛)的亲缘关系最为密切。
