The mitochondrial genome of the black-tailed dasyure (Murexia melanurus)

Abstract

In this study, we report the mitochondrial genome of the black-tailed dasyure (Murexia melanurus) of New Guinea. The circular genome is 17,736 bp in length and has an AT content of 60.5%. Its gene content-13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal (rRNA) genes, 21 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, a tRNA pseudogene (tRNA Lys), and a non-coding control region (CR)and gene arrangement are consistent with previous marsupial mitogenome assemblies.

“…Paired-end 350 bpinsert DNA libraries were sequenced by BGI (Hong Kong), using the BGISEQ-500 instrument, to generate $30Â genome coverage of 100 bp paired-end reads. Raw data was processed as described in a recent 'mitocommunication' on Murexia melanurus (Tian et al 2019).…”
