Complete mitochondrial genome of the western painted turtle ( Chrysemys picta bellii , Testudines: Emydidae) in Korea

The complete mitochondrial genome of in Korea was sequenced and characterized. The mitochondrial genome consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 ribosomal RNA genes) and a noncoding region. Phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial genome sequences revealed...

Zusammenfassung:The complete mitochondrial genome of in Korea was sequenced and characterized. The mitochondrial genome consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 ribosomal RNA genes) and a noncoding region. Phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial genome sequences revealed that from Korea formed a cluster with from China and from the USA, while showing clear separation from other turtle species within the cluster. This study presented the first complete mitochondrial genome from in Korea, offering crucial information for managing invasive species and protecting the local ecosystem.
