Whole mitochondrial genome of a Geoffroy’s Rousette, Rousettus amplexicaudatus (Pteropodidae)

The whole mitochondrial genome assembly of Rousettus amplexicaudatus belonging to the Pteropodidae found in the Philippines was sequenced and characterised. De novo sequence assembly yielded a 16,509bp sequence with an overall base composition of 32.43% A, 25.39% T, 26.17% C, and 14.02% G. The mitoc...

Sumario:The whole mitochondrial genome assembly of Rousettus amplexicaudatus belonging to the Pteropodidae found in the Philippines was sequenced and characterised. De novo sequence assembly yielded a 16,509bp sequence with an overall base composition of 32.43% A, 25.39% T, 26.17% C, and 14.02% G. The mitochondrial genome is composed 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and two rRNA genes. Molecular phylogeny of the order Chiroptera based on the maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference trees supports the classification of R. amplexicaudatus to genus Rousettus and family Pteropodidae. Furthermore, both trees support the modern division of order Chiroptera into the Yinpterochiroptera and Yangochiroptera clades.
