Abstract:
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Qingyuan chicken (Gallus gallus) was reported for the first time by using the high-throughput sequencing technology. The complete mitogenome sequence of Qingyuan chicken exhibits a typical genetic structure of vertebrate double-strands circular genome, containing a D-loop region, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes and 22 transfer RNA genes. Our work provides a source of useful data for mitochondrial researches and chicken phylogenetic studies.
