The first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Cynopterusbrachyotis (Chiroptera, Pteropodidae) from the Philippines.

ABSTRACT: The technical limitations of capillary sequencing in providing insights on phylogeny have been greatly aided in recent years by the implementation of next generation sequencing platforms which can generate whole mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences. In this study, enriched mitochondrial DNA of Cynopterusbrachyotis from Mindanao, Philippines was sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform. A total of 653,967 clean paired-end reads was assembled using a MIRA-MITObim pipeline, resulting in a consensus mitogenome sequence length of 17,382 bases and a GC content of 41.48%, which is consistent with other published mitogenomes in fruit bats. The assembled C.brachyotis mitogenome was annotated using the MITOS online server and was able to resolve all mitochondrial genes, excep
