Abstract:
The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Qinghai Tibetan pig was first determined in this study. The total length of the mitogenome is 16,720 bp. Indicating the an A + T(60.5%)-rich feature, including 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes. 22 transfer RNA genes and 1 non-coding control region. The NJ phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the phylogenetic relationship between Qinghai Tibetan pig and Yimenghei pig was the closest, and the relationship with Chinese northeas wildboar was farthest.
