The mitochondrial genome of a social aphid Pseudoregma bambucicola (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Hormaphidinae)

摘要

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the social aphid Pseudoregma bambucicola was assembled and annotated. The genome spans 16,631 bp in length with a high A + T content (85.1%), containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, one control region locating between srRNA and tRNAIle, and a repeat region located between tRNAGlu and tRNAPhe. All the tRNAs except tRNACys and tRNASer(gct) exhibit the typical clover-leaf like structures. The lengths of lrRNA and srRNA are 1301 bp and 758 bp, respectively. The order of genes between COIII and tRNAGlu exhibits significant difference for P. bambucicola. A phylogenetic analysis for P. bambucicola and 22 other aphids based on 13 protein-coding genes is also presented.
