The mitochondrial genome of the land snail (Müller, 1774) (Stylommatophora: Helicidae): the first complete sequence in the genus .

The complete mitochondrial genome of the white garden snail (Müller, 1774) has been sequenced and annotated in this study. The entire circular genome is 14,795 bp in size and represents the first mitochondrial genome in the genus , with two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein coding genes. All of genes are divided into two groups, including 24 genes on the majority coding strand (J strand) and others on the minority coding strand (N strand).The phylogeny supports the relationship of species in Helicidae.
