Abstract:
Lactarius trivialis is a very common species and widely distributes in north temperate. In this study, a complete mitogenome of L. trivialis was assembled and annotated. The whole mitogenome of L. trivialis was a circular molecule with 42,366 bp in length, encoding 44 genes as follows: 19 coding genes, two rRNAs, and 23 tRNAs. The contents of four bases in mtDNA were A (39.65%), T (38.82%), C (11.30%), and G (21.53%), respectively. Phylogenetic analysis recovered that it is nested with other Lactarius spp. in the order Russulalles.
