Complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of the Weddell seal, Leptonychotes weddellii
The Weddell seal, Leptonychotes weddellii, which belongs to the family Phocidae, is an abundant pinniped that inhabits the Antarctica. Here, we present the complete mitochondrial genome and phylogeny of L. weddellii. The total length of the mitogenome is 16,762 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding ge...
