Abstract
We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Gekko chinensis, which is an endemic species to China. The complete mitogenome is 17,906 bp in size, containing 37 genes coding for 13 proteins, two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a control region. The A + T content of the overall base composition of H-strand is 61.1% (T: 27.6%, C: 25.5%, A: 33.5%, and G: 13.4%). The major non-coding region (control region) is 2530 bp in length and the A + T content is 67.9%. Besides, four tandem repeats were found within the control region. In Bayesian inference (BI), maximum likelihood (ML) and maximum parsimony (MP) trees, we found G. chinensis is a sister clade to Gekko swinhonis.
