The complete mitochondrial genome of Anas zonorhyncha (Swinhoe, 1866) (Anatidae: Anas)

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Anas zonorhyncha was first reported. The length of the entire mitochondrial genome was 16,605 base pairs, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a D-loop region. A phylogenetic tree of A. zonorhyncha was constructed with a group of related species in the family of Anatidae, indicating a close genetic relationship between A. zonorhyncha and A. poecilorhyncha.
