Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Japanese forest green tree frog (Rhacophorus arboreus)

Abstract

We determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Japanese forest green tree frog (Rhacophorus arboreus). The mitochondrial genome is 22,236 bp in length, which encodes 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA, and 22 tRNA genes, and two control regions (D-loops). The whole gene arrangement of R. arboreus was the same as that of Rhacophorus omeimontis and Rhacophorus schlegelii.
