The Chong'an Mustache Toad, Leptobrachium liui (Pope, 1947) is a Chinese endemic species, inhabiting the mountain streams with rich vegetation in southeastern China. The first complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of L. liui was assembled using the data of whole-genome sequencing. The size of the complete mitogenome for L. liui was 17,190 bp, which included 13 PCGs, 23 tRNAs with two concatenated tRNA Met genes, 2 rRNAs, a non-coding region, and a D-loop. The Bayesian tree shows that L. liui was positioned near L. leishanense within the genus Leptobrachium.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
