Abstract

In the present paper, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of the Korean goral Naemorhaedus caudatus with particular emphasis on the control region (CR). The mitochondrial genome of M. moschiferus was 16,519 bp in size with mostly conserved structures (e.g. 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and 1 CR). Its general characteristics were shown and discussed.
