Complete mitochondrial genome of the roe deer Capreolus pygargus tianschanicus (Cervidae) from Korea

초록

We determined and annotated the whole mtDNA genome of the roe deer Capreolus pygargus tianschanicus in Korea. The complete mitogenome is a circular molecule of 16,357 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions (L-strand replication origin and control region). The mitogenome is AT-biased, with a nucleotide composition of 33.5% A, 30.0% T, 23.2% C, and 13.4% G. The phylogenetic analysis revealed the Korean roe deer C. p. tianschanicus is placed within the genus Caprelous clade, which has the water deer of the genus Hydropotes as sister clade.
