2 Fig. 1 Examples of the electropherograms obtained in cat samples for two different locations in the control region. They were aligned using Geneious software to the cat reference sequence, to sequences resultant from the BLAT analysis of the cat mtDNA against the cat genome (chrUnM) and to a previously reported NUMT (FCU20754).

3 Fig. 2 Phylogenetic networks obtained from the analysis of the cat mtDNA sequences. The large network results from the analysis of two fragments in the control region (HVI, HVII) and a part of tRNA-Pro. The small network is shown for comparison and was obtained from the analysis of the two protein coding genes ND5 and ND6. The samples used for the first analysis are also present in the second one.
