The complete mitochondrial genome of Slaty-backed Forktail, Enicurus schistaceus (Passeriformes: Muscicapidae) and phylogenetic analysis.

ABSTRACT: The complete mitogenome of the Slaty-backed Forktail (Enicurus schistaceus) was first sequenced using next-generation sequencing. It was 17,112 bp long, with a base composition of 14.17% G, 31.77% C, 30.73% A, and 23.33% T and an AT content of 54.06%. Similar to other mitochondrial genomes within the Muscicapidae family, E. schistaceus exhibited a relatively consistent mitogenome arrangement; it consisted of 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and one control region. Notably, ND6 and eight tRNA genes were encoded on the light strand. Phylogenetic analysis of the 12 Muscicapidae mitogenomes substantiated the monophyly of all genera, including E. schistaceus. Furthermore, the analysis demonstrated a close relationship between Enicurus and Myophonus.

Project description:Tarsiger indicus (Vieillot, 1817), the White-browed Bush Robin, is a small passerine bird widely distributed in Asian countries. Here, we successfully sequenced its mitogenome using the Illumina Novaseq 6000 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) for PE 2 × 150 bp sequencing. Combined with other published mitogenomes, we conducted the first comprehensive comparative mitogenome analysis of Muscicapidae birds and reconstructed the phylogenetic relationships between Muscicapidae and related groups. The T. indicus mitogenome was 16,723 bp in size, and it possessed the typical avian mitogenome structure and organization. Most PCGs of T. indicus were initiated strictly with the typical start codon ATG, while COX1 and ND2 were started with GTG. RSCU statistics showed that CUA, CGA, and GCC were relatively high frequency in the T. indicus mitogenome. T. cyanurus and T. indicus shared very similar mitogenomic features. All 13 PCGs of Muscicapidae mitogenomes had experienced purifying selection. Specifically, ATP8 had the highest rate of evolution (0.13296), whereas COX1 had the lowest (0.01373). The monophylies of Muscicapidae, Turdidae, and Paradoxornithidae were strongly supported. The clade of ((Muscicapidae + Turdidae) + Sturnidae) in Passeriformes was supported by both Bayesian Inference and Maximum likelihood analyses. The latest taxonomic status of many passerine birds with complex taxonomic histories were also supported. For example, Monticola gularis, T. indicus, and T. cyanurus were allocated to Turdidae in other literature; our phylogenetic topologies clearly supported their membership in Muscicapidae; Paradoxornis heudei, Suthora webbiana, S. nipalensis, and S. fulvifrons were formerly classified into Muscicapidae; we supported their membership in Paradoxornithidae; Culicicapa ceylonensis was originally classified as a member of Muscicapidae; our results are consistent with a position in Stenostiridae. Our study enriches the genetic data of T. indicus and provides new insights into the molecular phylogeny and evolution of passerine birds.
