The complete mitochondrial genome of the meerkat (Suricata suricatta) and its phylogenetic relationship with other feliform species

The meerkat, Suricata suricatta, is a highly social member of the mongoose family (Herpestidae) and the only extant species of the genus Suricata. We present the first complete mitochondrial genome of the meerkat, assembled with a seed-and-extend algorithm using three closely related species as refe...
