Abstract
We determined the whole mtNDA genome of the Plateau brown frog (Rana kukunoris) in Helan Mountains, Inner Mongolia. The complete mitochondrial genome consists of 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region (CR), and its total length is 16,644 bp. Three overlaps among the 13 protein-coding genes were found: ATP8/ATP6, ND4L/ND4, and ND5/ND6. The CR is 837 bp in length. The nucleotide composition is 27.49% A, 29.06% T, 14.77% G, 28.68% C. The result of phylogenetic analysis showed that there was close genetic relationship between R. kukunoris and Rana chensinensis.
