Abstract:
Lycodon liuchengchaoi is a new species discovered in recent years which is widely distribute in Anhui, Hubei and Sichuan Province. In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome of L. liuchengchaoi. The result shows that the complete mitogenome of L. liuchengchaoi is 17,171bp. It is similar with the typical mtDNA of Serpentes, which contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 control regions, and a stem-loop region. The phylogenetic tree, contains 17 Serpentiforms species, is divided into two clades which correspond to six genera in Colubridae. The L. liuchengchaoi which appeared into Clade A, clustered within Lycodon.

Lampbrush Chromosomes
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...
