The complete mitochondrial genome of the Madagascan plowshare tortoise Astrochelys yniphora (Testudines, Testudinidae)
We sequenced and characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of the Madagascan plowshare tortoise Astrochelys yniphora (Testudines, Testudinidae). This genome was 16,527 bp and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a noncod...

| description | We sequenced and characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of the Madagascan plowshare tortoise Astrochelys yniphora (Testudines, Testudinidae). This genome was 16,527 bp and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a noncoding control region. The genome organization, gene order, and base composition were identical to the typical vertebrate. There was no an additional C in arm of tRNALys gene secondary structure. Astrochelys yniphora 945 bp control region concluded the variable number of tandem repeats (VNTRs). The complete mitogenome of A. yniphora provides the basic data to molecular systematics research of Testudinidae. |
