Characterization of three new mitochondrial genomes of Coraciiformes (Megaceryle lugubris, Alcedo atthis, Halcyon smyrnensis) and insights into their phylogenetics
Abstract Coraciiformes contains more than 200 species with great differences on external morphology and life-style. The evolutionary relationships within Coraciiformes and the phylogenetic placement of Coraciiformes in Aves are still questioned. Mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences are popula...
