Phylogenetic analysis of Gray-crowned Crocias (Laniellus langbianis) in Lam Dong accessed by mitochondrial DNA
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of Laniellus langbianis by using mtDNA analysis. The results showed that mtDNA coverage percentage was as follows: twenty-two tRNA genes (8.64%), thirteen PCGs (63,10%), and two rRNA genes (14,47%). L. langbianis’s whole mitogenome had a regular A+T content of 54.1%. 13 PCGs in the L. langbianis mitogenome were estimated to be 11,262 bp long overall, making up 63,10% of the total mtDNA. The coverage range of the 22 t-RNA genes varied from 66 bp (trnS1, trnC) to 75 bp (trnL2). The tRNAs had an average base composition of A: 27.6%, T: 21.0%, G: 30.6%, and C: 20.8%. Phylogeny analysis revealed that L. langbianis is belonged to the family Leiothrichidae.
