The complete mitochondrial genome of Muskrat, (Rodentia: Cricetidae) in Korea was sequenced for the first time using the next-generation sequencing method to understand its evolutionary relationship and to be helpful to establish a management plan. This mitogenome was 16,350 base pairs in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and one control region. Its overall A, C, G, and T contents were 32.0%, 26.9%, 12.6%, and 28.5%, respectively. A + T content (63.7%) was higher than G + C content (36.3%). We made the phylogenetic tree of muskrat and other 12 species of order Rodentia distributed in Korea.
为了解麝鼠的进化关系并有助于制定管理计划，首次采用下一代测序方法对韩国麝鼠（啮齿目：仓鼠科）的完整线粒体基因组进行了测序。该线粒体基因组长度为16350个碱基对，包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因、两个核糖体RNA基因和一个控制区。其A、C、G和T的总体含量分别为32.0%、26.9%、12.6%和28.5%。A+T含量（63.7%）高于G+C含量（36.3%）。我们构建了麝鼠与分布在韩国的其他12种啮齿目动物的系统发育树。
