AI Article Synopsis

  • - The complete mitochondrial genome of a species was sequenced, revealing it consists of 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs, along with a non-coding region.
  • - Phylogenetic analysis showed that this species is part of a monophyletic group with another closely related species but does not group with two others.
  • - This is the first complete mitochondrial genome sequenced for this species, contributing valuable data for future research on the evolutionary relationships of similar species, particularly those introduced from North America.

Article Abstract

The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of was sequenced and characterized. The circular mt genome was constituted of of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs) and a non-coding region (NCR). Phylogenetic analysis based on the full mt genome sequences confirmed that among the genus Lithobates, is included in a monophyletic group with but not with either or . This is the first completed mt genome from , which provide data for further study of phylogeny in that have been introduced into a number of different countries originally from North America.
