Complete mitochondrial genome of the Japanese bumblebee, Bombus hypocrita hypocrita (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae)

摘要

AbstractIn the present report, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of the common bumblebee, Bombus hypocrita hypocrita, from the Otome Plateau, in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. The mitochondrial genome of B. h. hypocrita is a circular molecule of 15,795?bp. It contains 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA and two rDNA genes. The protein-coding genes had ATA, ATG or ATT as the initiation codon and were terminated by the typical stop codon TAA, except for ND4 and Cytb. All the tRNA genes typically formed a cloverleaf secondary structure, except for trnE and trnS1.
