Abstract

The complete mitogenome sequence of the large mole (Mogera robusta) was determined using long PCR. The genome was 16,890 bp in length and contained 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, one origin of L strand replication, and one control region. The overall base composition of the heavy strand is A (35.2%), C (22.8%), T (29.1%), and G (12.9%). The base compositions present clearly the A–T skew, which is most obviously in the control region and protein-coding genes. Mitochondrial genome analyses based on MP, ML, NJ, and Bayesian analyses yielded identical phylogenetic trees. The two Mogera species formed a monophyletic group with the high bootstrap value (100%) in all examinations.
