Mitochondrial DNA B Resour. 2022 Nov 4;7(11):1896-1898. doi: 10.1080/23802359.2022.2134746. eCollection 2022.

Abstract

This study encoded the complete mitochondrial genomic sequence of the little ringed plover Charadrius dubius. The mitochondrial genome has a total length of 16,864 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a control region. The nucleotide composition was 23.8% T, 31.6% A, 30.8% C, and 13.8% G. This study provides the basic information on the mitogenome of C. dubius and supports the understanding of mitogenomic information and its phylogenetic relationship within Charadriiformes.

Keywords: Charadriiformes; Charadrius dubius; Mitochondrial genome; little ringed plover.
