Abstract:
Mitochondrial genome sequences are valuable resources for systematics and conservation biology studies. In this paper, we present the complete mitogenome of Aquila nipalensis which was 18,450 bp in length. The gene content and arrangement were typical for avian mtDNA. The overall A + T content of was 54.1%, and the AT skew was calculated as 0.12 for the complete mitogenome of A. nipalensis. The maximum-likelihood (ML) tree based on the concatenated 12 protein-coding genes (PCGs) revealed the basal phylogenetic position of A. nipalensis in Aquila.
