Complete mitochondrial genome of Red-rumped Swallow, Cecropis daurica (Passeriformes: Hirundinidae).
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Cecropis daurica was determined by using a PCR-based method. The complete mitochondrial DNA of this swallow was 17,949 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and 2 control regions. All genes were encoded on the heavy strain except for ND6 and eight tRNA genes. The gene arrangement of the Cecropis daurica was similar to that found in other passerines. Base composition of the heavy strain was A (30.5%), T (23.0%), C (32.1%) and G (14.3%) with the A + T bias of 53.5%.
