The complete mitochondrial genome of short-faced mole (Scaptochirus moschatus, Talpidae)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Abstract The short-faced mole (Scaptochirus moschatus) is a unique Chinese mammal that lives in burrows for life. In this study, we used Illumina NovaSeq sequencing to obtain the complete mitochondrial genome of the short-faced mole. The total length of the genome is 16,699 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA), 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNA), and 1 control region, with a base composition of 33.82% A, 26.89% T, 25.27% C, and 14.01% G. Phylogenetic analysis of the Talpidae by using complete mitochondrial genome sequences of 14 Talpidae species shows that short-faced mole is closely related to Parascaptor leucura.
