In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Niya chicken (Gallus gallus) was obtained by using the next-generation sequencing technology for the first time. The complete mitogenome sequence of Niya chicken is 16,784 bp in length, containing 2 ribosomal RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and a D-loop region. Our work provides a valuable source of data for phylogenetic studies and helps us to understand the maternal origins of the native chickens.
在本研究中,首次利用下一代测序技术获得了尼雅黑鸡(家鸡)的完整线粒体基因组序列。尼雅黑鸡的完整线粒体基因组序列长度为16,784 bp,包含2个核糖体RNA、13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因和一个D环区域。我们的工作为系统发育研究提供了有价值的数据来源,并有助于我们了解本地鸡的母系起源。
