Abstract

The complete sequence of the mitochondrial DNA genome from Garrulax cineraceus was determined using the polymerase chain reaction method. The genome (17,800 bp in length) contained 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes and 22 tRNA genes) and 2 control regions (D-loop) at two different locations of mitogenome, which is similar to the typical mtDNA of vertebrates. All the protein-coding genes in G. cineraceus were distributed on the H-strand, except for the ND6 subunit gene and eight tRNA genes which were encoded on the L-strand.
