Tibet Gaoshan Yak () is a local Yak breed that mainly produces meat in Tibet Autonomous Region, China. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Tibet Gaoshan Yak was sequenced. The total length of the mitochondrial genome is 16,323 bp, and the base composition is 33.71% for A, 13.21% for G, 27.27% for T, and 25.81% for C. The genome includes 13 protein-coding genes (, , , , and ), two rRNA genes (12S rRNA and 16SrRNA), 22 tRNA genes, and a noncoding control region (D-loop). Phylogenetic analysis showed that Tibet Gaoshan Yak has the closest relationship with Polled Yak. The sequence analysis provided in this study will be helpful to the management of Yak breeds, the origin, and evolution of Yak, and the protection and utilization of genetic resources.
西藏高山牦牛()是中国西藏自治区主要产肉的本地牦牛品种。本研究对西藏高山牦牛的线粒体基因组进行了全序列测定。线粒体基因组全长16323bp,碱基组成为:A占33.71%,G占13.21%,T占27.27%,C占25.81%。该基因组包括13个蛋白质编码基因(、、、、和)、两个rRNA基因(12S rRNA和16S rRNA)、22个tRNA基因以及一个非编码控制区(D-loop)。系统发育分析表明,西藏高山牦牛与无角牦牛的亲缘关系最近。本研究提供的序列分析将有助于牦牛品种的管理、牦牛的起源与进化以及遗传资源的保护与利用。
