Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of pathogen Trichosporon inkin (Trichosporonales: Trichosporonaceae)

Abstract

In the present study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Trichosporon inkin was sequenced and assembled. The complete mitochondrial genome of T. inkin contained 22 protein-coding genes (PCG), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 24 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. The total size of the T. inkin mitochondrial genome is 39,466 bp, with the GC content of 27.56%. Phylogenetic analysis based on combined mitochondrial gene dataset indicated that the T. inkin exhibited a close relationship with Trichosporon asahii.
