The complete mitogenome of scaly thrush Zoothera aurea (Passeriformes, Turdidae)

The complete mitochondrial genome of scaly thrush Zoothera aurea was obtained by next-generation sequencing. The circular genome was 16,712 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The overall nucleotide composition wa...

Sumario:The complete mitochondrial genome of scaly thrush Zoothera aurea was obtained by next-generation sequencing. The circular genome was 16,712 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The overall nucleotide composition was A: 29.67%, T: 23.32%, C: 32.21%, and G: 14.80%. Nine genes were encoded on the light strand, and the remaining 28 genes were encoded on the heavy strand. Most of the PCGs began with the ATG as the start codon, and six kinds of termination codons were used in this mitogenome. This study improves our understanding of the mitogenomic characteristics and its phylogenetic relationships within Turdidae.
