Abstract
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Sorex minutissimus was sequenced and deposited to GeneBank for the first time using muscle tissue. This mitochondrial genome is a circular molecule of 16,700 bp in length and sequence analysis showed it contains 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, rep_origin, and D_loop. Phylogenetic analysis on the basis of 12 protein-coding genes except ND6 of 13 Soricidae species’ mitochondrial genomes using ML and BI demonstrated that S. minutissimus and other Sorex species were clustered into same clade.
