Abstract:
The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) for Pareas stanleyi was determined in this study. The length of complete mtDNA was 18,932 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) (COI-III, ND1-6, ND4L, ATP6, ATP8 and CYTB), 23 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, a L-chain replication-initiating non-coding region (NCR) and 2 control regions. The overall base composition of the sequence is 24.76% of T, 29.20% of C, 30.87% of A, and 15.16% of G, with a total A + T content of 55.63%. The phylogenetic tree showed that P. stanleyi had a close relationship with the other two species (P. boulengeri and P. formosensis) from the genus Pareas.
