Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome in Xiaoxiang chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus)

Xiaoxiang chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is one of the native breeds in the Southeastern of Guizhou province, China. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Xiaoxiang chicken (small-sized breed chicken) was obtained for the first time. The mitogenome is 16,784 bp in length, and it containe...

Sumario:Xiaoxiang chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is one of the native breeds in the Southeastern of Guizhou province, China. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Xiaoxiang chicken (small-sized breed chicken) was obtained for the first time. The mitogenome is 16,784 bp in length, and it contained a D-loop region, two rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and 22 tRNA genes. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree was structured based on the D-loop, which indicated that the Red junglefowl was the direct ancestor of Xiaoxiang chicken, and both were closed to the Silky chicken and Dongan black chicken.
