First near complete mitochondrial genome of large toothed toad, Oreolalax major (Anura: Megophryidae) from southwest China.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the near complete mitogenome sequence (15,469?bp) of Oreolalax major was determined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes and 19 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes (GenBank accession number KU310894). The features of O. major have one more tRNA gene (tRNA^Met ) behind the original one before ND2 which is similar to Leptobrachium boringii. Phylogenetic analyses were based on the concatenated sequences of the 13 protein-encoding genes of O. major and other related species.

A new species of the toothed toad Oreolalax (Anura, Megophryidae) from Sichuan Province, China.

Project description:The toad genus Oreolalax is widely distributed in southwest China and northern Vietnam. A new species of the genus is described from Sichuan Province, China. Phylogenetic analyses based on the mitochondrial 12S rRNA and 16S rRNA gene sequences supported the new species as an independent clade clustered into the clade also containing O. nanjiangensis and O. chuanbeiensis. The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: body size moderate (SVL 51.2-64.2 mm in males); head broad; tympanum hidden; interorbital region with dark triangular pattern; belly with marbling; male lacking spines on lip margin; spiny patches on chest small with thick sparse spines in male; nuptial spines thick and sparse; tibio-tarsal articulation reaching beyond nostril when leg stretched forward; toe webbing at base.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Oreolalax major (Anura: Megophryidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of a frog species Oreolalax major is determined. This mitogenome length is 17 431 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 23 tRNA genes and a control region (D-loop). Compared with most other vertebrates, this mitogenome appears a tandem duplication of tRNAMet gene. The tRNATrp gene of Oreolalax major translocates from the "WANCY" tRNA cluster to upstream of D-loop. As the first report of the mitogenome sequence from the genus Oreolalax, it will provide fundamental data for further research of phylogeny and biogeography with this genus.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the toad species Oreolalax xiangchengensis (Anura: Megophryidae) and phylogenetic analyses.

Project description:Oreolalax xiangchengensis is an alpine toad species of Megophryidae. We determined its complete mitogenome. The mitogenome has a length of 17,110 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 23 tRNA genes, and a control region. It has a tandem duplication of tRNA-Met gene and a translocation of tRNA-Trp gene compared with typical vertebrate mitogenomes. Phylogenetic analyses based on the mitogenome sequences of 18 Megophryidae species were conducted to access phylogenetic assignments of O. xiangchengensis.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Oreolalax lichuanensis (Amphibia, Anura, Megophryidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of the Oreolalax lichuanensis was determined. It is a circular molecule of 17 702 bp in size and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 23 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and a control region (D-loop). The base composition on light strand was 28.0% A, 32.2% T, 24.9% C and 14.9% G. Compared with most other vertebrates, this mitogenome appear a tandem duplication of tRNA-Met gene. This study will facilitate the further research of the population genetics of this species and systematic study of the genus Oreolalax.

A new species of the Asian leaf litter toad genus Leptobrachella (Amphibia, Anura, Megophryidae) from southwest China.

Project description:A new species of the Asian leaf litter toad genus Leptobrachella from Guizhou Province, China is described based on molecular phylogenetic analyses, morphological comparisons, and bioacoustics data. Phylogenetic analyses based on the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene sequences supported the new species as an independent clade nested into the Leptobrachella clade and sister to L. bijie. The new species could be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: small body size (SVL 30.8-33.4 mm in seven adult males, and 34.2 mm in one adult female); dorsal skin shagreened, some of the granules forming longitudinal short skin ridges; tympanum distinctly discernible, slightly concave; internasal distance longer than interorbital distance; supra-axillary, femoral, pectoral and ventrolateral glands distinctly visible; absence of webbing and lateral fringes on fingers; toes with rudimentary webbing and shallow lateral fringes, relative finger lengths II < IV < I < III; heels overlapped when thighs are positioned at right angles to the body; and tibia-tarsal articulation reaches the tympanum.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Alpine Metacarpal-tubercled Toad Leptobrachella alpina (Amphibia, Anura, Megophryidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of the Leptobrachella alpina Fei, Ye, and Li 1990, was assembled for the first time. The mitogenome of this species was 17,763 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA), and a non-coding control region (D-loop). The base content of the mitogenome was that A, T, G, and C occupied 28.5%, 30.8%, 15.1%, and 25.6%, respectively. The phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on 17 complete mitogenome sequences of the family Megophryidae by the Bayesian inference approach. The phylogenetic tree suggested that Leptobrachium and Oreolalax clustered into a clade and formed a sister group with Leptobrachella. This work is critical for the further genetic research and conservation of this species.
