Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of golden pheasant from North China was sequenced by the shotgun genome skimming methods. The mitogenome of was 16,678 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and one non-coding control region (D-loop). Its overall base composition was 30.4% A, 24.8% T, 31.2% C and 13.6% G. All protein-coding genes had a typical ATG initiation codon except with GTG and terminated with a TAN codon, whereas terminated with a codon of AGG, and terminated with a single T. The ML phylogenetic tree constructed using 13 protein-coding genes showed that species formed a monophyletic group, which was sister to the clade clustered by the two genera and .
