Complete mitochondrial genome of critically endangered Crocidura nicobarica (Soricidae: Eulipotyphla) from the Great Nicobar Island, India

The mitogenome (17,388 bp) of the Nicobar shrew, Crocidura nicobarica was determined in the present study. The mitogenome comprises 13 PCGs (11,427 bp), 22 tRNAs (1507 bp), two rRNAs (2538 bp), and a major non-coding control region (1932 bp). The Maximum Likelihood phylogeny clearly discriminates al...

description The mitogenome (17,388 bp) of the Nicobar shrew, Crocidura nicobarica was determined in the present study. The mitogenome comprises 13 PCGs (11,427 bp), 22 tRNAs (1507 bp), two rRNAs (2538 bp), and a major non-coding control region (1932 bp). The Maximum Likelihood phylogeny clearly discriminates all the studied Crocidura species with high bootstrap support by concatenated PCGs. The studied species, C. nicobarica shows a close relationship with Crocidura orientalis, distributed in Java, Indonesia. The lineage diversification and zoogeographic patterns are congruent in the present analyses and encouraged further sampling and more molecular data to elucidate their in-depth evolutionary relationship.
