Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the Lesser Spotted Woodpecker (Dryobates minor) and its phylogenetic position

In this study, we sequenced and assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of Dryobates minor by next-generation sequencing. The mitochondrial genome of Dryobates minor is 16,847 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGS), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) gene...

Description
Summary:In this study, we sequenced and assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of Dryobates minor by next-generation sequencing. The mitochondrial genome of Dryobates minor is 16,847 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGS), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and 1 control region (CR). The CG content of the mitochondrial genome is 47.46%. Only one overlap among the 13 protein-coding genes was found: ND4L/ND4. Phylogenetic analysis based on a combined mitochondrial gene dataset indicated that the mitochondrial genome of Dryobates minor exhibited a close relationship with that of Picoides pubescens.
