The complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis of Alpine Merino sheep (Ovis aries)

Alpine Merino sheep is one of the most important fine-wool sheep breeds in China. In this study, we present the complete mitogenome of Alpine Merino sheep for the first time. The genome has a length of 16,619bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a...

Sumario:Alpine Merino sheep is one of the most important fine-wool sheep breeds in China. In this study, we present the complete mitogenome of Alpine Merino sheep for the first time. The genome has a length of 16,619bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a control region (D-loop). Phylogenetically, the Alpine Merino sheep is closer to Oula Tibetan sheep and Tashkurgan sheep. This report provided new data for the phylogeny of Alpine Merino sheep.
