Abstract
Xueduo yak (Bos grunniens) is one of the native yak genetic resources of China. Here, the complete mitochondrial genome of the Xueduo yak was first sequenced in this study. The total length of this mitochondrial genome is 16,323 bp, with the base composition of 33.72% A, 27.28% T, 25.80% C, and 13.20% G. The genome has 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed that Xueduo yak is closely related to Qinghai Plateau yak and Maiwa yak. This complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Xueduo yak would be useful for further understanding the evolution and conservation of Xueduo yak.
