The complete mitochondrial genome of white-tailed mole (Parascaptor leucura)

The white-tailed mole (Parascaptor leucura) belongs to genus Parascaptor, which is a monotypic genus distributed across Southwestern China, Assam (India), Bengal, and Northern Burma, and Laos. In this study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of Parascaptor leucura. The genome is total 16...

Sumario:The white-tailed mole (Parascaptor leucura) belongs to genus Parascaptor, which is a monotypic genus distributed across Southwestern China, Assam (India), Bengal, and Northern Burma, and Laos. In this study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of Parascaptor leucura. The genome is total 16,875 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNA), and two non-coding regions, with a base composition of 33.5% A, 26.4% T, 25.7% C, and 14.3% G. The nucleotide sequence data of 13 protein-coding genes of P. leucura and other nine Eulipotyphla species were used to reconstruct a Bayesian phylogenetic tree. The tree shows that P. leucura belongs to subfamily Talpinae and is closely related to Scaptochirus moschatus.
