The complete mitogenome of Microhyla fissipes (Anura: Microhylidae) and phylogenetic analysis using GenBank data mining

The complete mitogenome of Microhyla fissipes (16,723 bp) was obtained and analysed. It contains the set of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and one non-coding regions. Most of the genes in M. fissipes are located on the H-strand, except for the ND6 and eight tRNA genes which are located on the L-strand. The phylogenetic tree shows that M. fissipes is a sister to the clade composed of M. okinavensis and M. mixtura and places Glyphoglossus yunnanensis as the sister lineage to a clade of Microhyla. This new mitogenome of M. fissipes will provide basic data for further molecular evolution studies in this genus.
