The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of the Hetian chicken (Gallus gallus).

ABSTRACT: In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Hetian chicken (Gallus gallus) was obtained by using next generation sequencing method. The total length of complete mitogenome sequence is 16,784 bp, containing one control region, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes and 22 transfer RNA genes. This work provides a valuable source of data for the study of the evolution of Gallus gallus mitochondrial genome and contributes to Hetian chicken breeding improvement program.
