Abstract

Diqing pig is one of the famous native breed in China. In this work, we reported the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Diqing pig in Hunan Province for the first time. The total length of the mitogenome is 16,720 bp. The NJ phylogenetic tree analysis showed that Diqing pig together with Chinese animals, and the farthest genetic distance from Landrace, has the closest genetic distance to Ganzi pig.

Keywords: Diqing pig; NJ Phylogenetic tree; mitochondrial DNA.
