Abstract

In this study, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Chlamydotis macqueenii was sequenced through the Illumina sequencing method, and the mitochondrial genome map was constructed after de novo assembly and annotation. This intact mt genome (16,821 bp) has a typical gene repertoire in vertebrates, with 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, and 2 rRNAs. The overall GC content of this mitogenome is 44.5%. By phylogenetic analysis using IQTREE, C. macqueenii showed the closest relationship with Otis tarda in the subclade of Otididae.
