The nearly complete mitochondrial genome of Chinese pygmy dormouse <i>Typhlomys cinereus</i> (Rodentia: Platacanthomyidae)

DOI Open Access

Description

In this study, we report the nearly complete mitochondrial genome of a Chinese pygmy dormouse Typhlomys cinereus (Rodentia: Platacanthomyidae). The 15,011 bp genome is consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 16S rRNA, 21 tRNAs, partial 12S rRNA and control region. A phylogenetic tree was built using 12 protein-coding genes of 19 species from Dipodoidea and Muroidea. Our result shows that T. cinereus represents the earliest split within Muroidea. The genome would contribute to further study of phylogeny in Muroidea and Rodentia.
