Complete mitochondrial genome of Aedes flavopictus (Yamada, 1921) (Diptera: Culicidae) collected in South Korea

摘要

In this study, we determined for the first time the mitochondrial genome sequence of an Aedes flavopictus specimen collected in South Korea. Its mitochondrial genome was 16,060?bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, and 2 rRNA genes and a non-coding A?+?T rich region. The overall base composition in the heavy strand was 39.7, 8.6, 12.7, and 39% of A, G, C, and T, respectively, and the G?+?C content was 21.2%. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Aedes spp. formed a monophyletic clade.
