The complete mitochondrial genome of the striped field mouse, Apodemus agrarius (Rodentia, Murinae) from Korea

Abstract

The striped field mouse, Apodemus agrarius, is the most common rodents in temperate forests of the Korean peninsula. We have determined the complete mitochondrial genome (JN629047) of A. agrarius from Korea. Apodemus agrarius mitogenome is 16,263 bp in length and has a base composition of 33.9% A, 29.9% T, 23.6% C, and 12.5% G. The total length of the 13 protein-coding genes is 11,398 bp long.

Keywords::

• striped field mouse
• Apodemus agrarius
• mitogenome
