Identification and phylogenetic analysis in Pterorhinuschinensis (Aves, Passeriformes, Leiothrichidae) based on complete mitogenome.

ABSTRACT: The Black-throated Laughingthrush (Pterorhinuschinensis) is a bird belonging to the order Passeriformes and the family Leiothrichidae, and is found in Cambodia, China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam. Pterorhinuschinensis was once classified as belonging to the genus Garrulax. However, recent research has reclassified it in the genus Pterorhinus. In this study, we sequenced and characterized the complete mitogenome of P.chinensis. The complete mitochondrial genome of P.chinensis is 17,827 bp in length. It consists of 13 PCGs, 22 tRNAs, two rRNAs, and two control regions. All genes are coded on the H-strand, except for one PCG (nad6) and eight tRNAs. All PCGs are initiated with ATG and stopped by five types of stop codons. Our comparative analys
