Complete mitochondrial genome of Eurasian Hobby Falco subbuteo (Falconiformes:Falconidae) and phylogenetic analyses.

ABSTRACT: The Eurasian Hobby Falco subbuteo is a Falco bird belonging to the group Falconiformes, and was listed in Appendices II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora and listed as a Class II protected species on China's List of Wildlife under Special State Protection. In this study, the complete mitogenome of F. subbuteo was determined. The mitochondrial DNA is packaged in a compact 17,678 based pair (bp) circular molecule with A + T content of 54.70%. It contains 37 typical mitochondrial genes, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs and 22 tRNAs, and 2 non-coding regions (D-Loop). We reconstructed a phylogenetic tree based on mitogenome sequences of 13 Falconidae species and one outgroup. Phylogenetic analysis indicated tha
