Abstract:
The mitochondrial genome of the Disckless-fingered Odorous Frog, Odorrana grahami (Anura: Ranidae), was sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technology. The genome length was 17864 bp, including 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region (D-loop). The AT content of the mitochondrial genome was 55.9%. The composition of mitochondrial genome of O. grahami is similar to that of other species of the genus Odorrana. Phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial genomes of six congeners shows that O. grahami is sister to O. margaretae, but the analysis using 16S rRNA gene of additional congeners do not resolve their relationships.

LBCs are made up of two pairs of conjugating homologous chromatids. Each chromatid consists of alternatively positioned regions of condensed-inactive chromatin and loosely placed-active side loops, which can be contracted and extended. The loops...
