“…Furthermore, data from L. lynx populations from Central and Eastern Asia would also add essential information to the species evolutionary history. They live at edges of the species' range and were not as heavily impacted by climatic oscillations and anthropogenic factors as the northern Palaearctic populations, thus likely maintaining more of their ancestral genetic diversity [7,35]. While Eurasian lynx from Mongolia were already included in detailed phylogenetic analyses [16], specimens from other Central Asian (e.g.…”

“…In order to reassess the Eurasian lynx mtDNA phylogeny, we took an already existing data set [16] and added six mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of L. l. dinniki from three regions in Anatolia, Turkey, one mitogenome of L. lynx from Northeastern China (Khingan Mountains; [45]), and one of L. l. isabellinus from Central China (Tianquan; [35]). The inclusion of the two additional subspecies generated a new data set that now includes mitogenomes of all proposed L. lynx subspecies [38].…”

Phylogenetic and phylogeographic assessments of species should ideally include individuals of all known populations. However, this is difficult for species with large distribution areas. Previous molecular studies of the wide-ranging Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx focused mainly on its northern Palearctic populations, with the consequence that the reconstruction of this species’ evolutionary history did not include genetic variation present in its southern Palearctic distribution. We sampled a previously not considered Asian subspecies (L. l. dinniki), added published data from another Asian subspecies (L. l. isabellinus), and reassessed the Eurasian lynx mtDNA phylogeny along with previously published data from northern Palearctic populations. Our mitogenome-based analyses revealed that the subspecies L. l. isabellinus harbours the most basal matriline, consistent with the origin of Lynx lynx in this subspecies’ current range. L. l. dinniki harbours the second-most basal matriline, which is related to, and may be the source of, the mtDNA diversity of the critically endangered Balkan lynx L. l. balcanicus. Our results suggest that the Anatolian peninsula was a glacial refugium for Eurasian lynx, with previously unconsidered implications for the colonization of Europe by this species. Genetic variation present in southern Palearctic populations of Lynx lynx is clearly important for elucidating the evolutionary history of this species.

“…The complete mitochondrial genome of red-and-white giant flying squirrel is 16,511 bp (Genbank number MN011572), the genome contains two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and one control region (D-loop) that was same as most vertebrate (Roos 2018 ; Wu et al. 2018 ). All of these genes are encoded on H-strand except for ND6 and eight tRNA genes on L-strand.…”

Red-and-white giant flying squirrel (Petaurista alborufus) is a widely distributed but rarely studied species. Here, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome about it, which is a circular genome of 16,511 bp and have a typical structure with mammals. The base composition shows higher composition of A\T. There are 61 variations and eight base deletions between two sequences when compared with the reported sequence (JQ743657). In this study, we obtain a new mitochondrial genome sequence of red-and-white giant flying squirrel, which provide novel molecular information that could prove fundamental to our understanding of diversity research and phylogenetic structure.

“…In this mitogenome, NADH6 and eight tRNA genes were encoded on the L-strand, whereas the H-strand encoded two rRNAs, 12 PCGs and 14 tRNAs. All tRNAs were folded into the typical clover-leaf secondary structure, except for the tRNA Ser (AGY) gene as it lacked the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm, which is common phenomenon in other carnivorous (Chen and Zhang 2012;Wu et al 2018). 12S rRNA and 16S rRNA were 966 bp and 1575 bp that were separated by the tRNA Val gene.…”

In this study, we reported the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a red panda (Ailurus fulgens). The mitogenome (GenBank accession number MK886830) length is 16,517 bp and exhibits the typical structure of mammalian mitochondrial genomes contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs, and one control region. The tRNA Ser (AGY) gene failed to form the typical cloverleaf secondary structure as it lacked the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm. phylogenetically, our sequence cluster together with genus Ailurus, which showed a closer genetic relationship. The mitogenome provides new data to further elucidation and understand the phylogeny of red pandas.
