The first complete mitogenome of Cervus canadensis nannodes (Merriam, 1905)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 Cervus canadensis nannodes (Merriam, 1905) is one of the subspecies of elk distributed only in California, USA. We completed the first mitogenome of C. canadensis nannodes. Its length is 16,428 bp, which is in middle among 24 available Cervus mitogenomes.
