| complete mitochondrial genome of endangered socorro conure (aratinga brevipes) - taxonomic position of the species and its relationship with green conure. | socorro conure (aratinga brevipes.aratinga holochlora brevipes) is a parrot endemic to the island of socorro. according to some taxonomists the species is considered a subspecies of green conure (aratinga holochlora). some other classifications treat brevipes as a separate species based on relatively minor morphological differences between both species/subspecies. however, taxonomic position of aratinga brevipes was never determined by molecular research. we sequenced full mitochondrial genome o ... | 2014 | 23815322 |
| complete mitochondrial genome of mitred conure (psittacara mitratus): its comparison with mitogenome of socorro conure (psittacara brevipes). | the mitred conure (psittacara mitratus) is a species native to the forests and woodlands in the andes in central peru, south through west-central bolivia, to northwestern argentina. the genus psittacara have recently been distinguished on the basis of molecular revision of the aratinga species. in consequence, it became one of the nine genera, which form morphologically diverse group termed as conures. although, the number of species/subspecies belonging to psittacara remains controversial, it i ... | 2016 | 25703848 |
| complete mitochondrial genome of red-throated conure (psittacara rubritorquis): its comparison with mitogenome of socorro conure (psittacara brevipes). | according to some taxonomists the red-throated conure (psittacara rubritorquis) is considered a subspecies of green conure (psittacara holochlora). some other classifications treat rubritorquis as a separate species based on relatively minor morphological differences between both species/subspecies. so far, taxonomic position of p. rubritorquis was determined by molecular researches using only nd2 gene sequence or incomplete combined mitochondrial nd2, coi and cytb gene sequences. obtained outco ... | 2016 | 25703849 |
