摘要
In this study, we report a complete mitochondrial (mt) genome sequence of the Texel ewe, Ovis aries. The total genome is 16,615 bp in length and its overall base composition was estimated to be 33.68% for A, 27.36% for T, 25.86% for C, and 13.10% for G indicating an AT-rich (61.04%) feature in the O. aries mtgenome. It contains a total of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and a control region (D-loop region). Comparisons with other publicly available sheep mitogenomes revealed a bunch of nucleotide diversity. This complete mitgenome sequence would enlarge useful genomic information for further studies on sheep evolution and domestication that will enhance germplasm conservation and breeding programs of O. aries.

在这项研究中,我们报告了一个完整的线粒体(mt)基因组序列的Texel母羊,Ovis aries。总基因组长度为16,615 bp,其总基础组成估计为A为33.68%,T为27.36%,C为25.86%,G为13.10%,表明O中富含AT(61.04%)。 aries mtgenome。它包含总共13个蛋白质编码基因,22个转移RNA基因,2个核糖体RNA基因和一个控制区域(D-环区域)。与其他公开可用的绵羊有丝分裂原的比较揭示了一堆核苷酸多样性。这个完整的有丝分裂组序列将扩大有用的基因组信息,用于进一步研究绵羊进化和驯化,这将加强O. aries的种质保存和育种计划。
