Comparative Analysis of Mitochondrial Genomes in Two Subspecies of the Sunwatcher Toad-Headed Agama (<i>Phrynocephalus helioscopus</i>): Prevalent Intraspecific Gene Rearrangements in <i>Phrynocephalus</i>

Comparative Analysis of Mitochondrial Genomes in Two Subspecies of the Sunwatcher Toad-Headed Agama (<i>Phrynocephalus helioscopus</i>): Prevalent Intraspecific Gene Rearrangements in <i>Phrynocephalus</i>

Intraspecific rearrangements of mitochondrial genomes are rarely reported in reptiles, even in vertebrates. The sunwatcher toad-headed agama, <i>Phryncoephalus helioscopus</i>, can serve as an excellent model for investigating the dynamic mitogenome structure at intraspecific level. To d...
