Abstract

Wuyi Black pig is a native breed of Fujian province in China. It is the first time that the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Wuyi Black pig is reported in this work, which is determined through the PCR-based method. The total length of the mitognome is 16,709 bp, which contains 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, 13 PCGs and 1 control region (D-loop region). The total base composition of Wuyi Black pig mitochondrial genome is 34.67% for A, 26.20% for C, 25.81% for T and 13.33% for G, in the order A > C > T > G. The complete mitochondrial genome of Wuyi Black pig provides an important data in genetic mechanism and the evolution genomes.
