The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of the Arabian Honeybee Apis mellifera jemenitica (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae) from Saudi Arabia.

ABSTRACT: Fourteen mitochondrial genomes from workers of the Arabian Honeybee Apis mellifera jemenitica were determined. Genomes range from 16,352 to 16,445 bp. Each consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs, and one control region. The mitogenome sequences revealed 753 Variable sites in total, distributed within protein-coding loci (199), ribosomal RNAs genes (117), transfere RNAs genes (48), and non-coding AT-rich region's (389). Phylogenetic analysis with Neighbor-Joining method suggested three evolutionary groups for these mitogenomes, closely related to A. m. jemenitica, A. m. lamarckii, A. m. syriaca, and A. m. scutellata.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Apis mellifera meda (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of the western honey bee subspecies Apis mellifera meda was sequenced. This mitochondrial genome is 16,248?bp in length, with 37 classical eukaryotic mitochondrial genes and an A?+?T-rich region. Gene direction and arrangement are similar to those of other Apis mitogenomes. All genes initiate with ATT (six genes), ATG (four genes), ATA (two genes), and ATC (one gene) start codons and terminate with a TAA stop codon. Four genes are encoded on the heavy and nine on the light strands, respectively. All of the 22 tRNA genes, ranging from 66 to 78?bp, have a typical cloverleaf structure. The complete mitogenome of A.m. meda provides information on the biogeography and evolution of A. mellifera subspecies.

Assessment of genetic variation in Apis mellifera jemenitica (Hymenoptera: Apidae) using Cytochrome Oxidase I gene sequences.

Project description:The Arabian Honeybee Apis mellifera jemenitica is endemic to the Arabian Peninsula. It is highly adapted to temperature extremes and drought dominating the region. In this study, the mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI) was analyzed in 133 specimens of A. m. jemenitica from eight localities along the Red Sea cost of Saudi Arabia. Results revealed 33 synonymous, and 6 non-synonymous mutations within the COI sequences, resulting in change of 4 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis based on either type of mutations revealed two main haplogroups accounting for 94% of the samples. In total Eighteen new haplotypes were identified and uploaded in the genebank, Fourteen of them are restricted to one/both haplogroups. All haplotypes identified in this study clustered with reference COI sequences of the sub-lineag Z (African Lineage). However one Haplotype (MW428270) represents high COI variability compared to other haplotypes and may resemble different evolutionary sub-lineage. Tajima's Neutrality Test (Ps = 0.025; D = -1.5) indicated population size expansion that took place after selective sweep and/or purifying selection.

Assessment of genetic variation in Apis mellifera jemenitica (Hymenoptera: Apidae) based on mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit II and III.

Project description:Morphometric and genetic characterization of many Apis mellifera subspecies are well-documented. A. m. jemenetica occurs naturally in Africa and Asia. In this study, genetic variation of mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase II (COII) and III (COIII) were analysed in 133 specimens of the endemic honeybee colonies within Saudi Arabia. The COII gene sequence length was 684 bp comprising nine synonymous (1.3%) and two non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (0.87%). Five variants of COII were not previously documented, one variant (MT755968) showed an extra restriction site when subjected to type II restriction endonuclease from Arthrobacter protophormiae (Apol) or to Haemophilus influenzae Rf (Hinf1). Changes in COII sequence separated samples into three haplogroups. Whereas, COIII gene sequence length was 780 bp, including 18 synonymous and five non-synonymous SNPs. Furthermore, variation in COII sequence was more informative based on restriction profiles and on amino acid changes compared with COIII gene sequence. Variants of COIII showed identical restriction sites when subjected to type II restriction endonuclease from Deinococcus radiophilus (DraI), and revealed high similarity to African subspecies. Results of this study are very useful in understanding genetic diversity and characterization of A. mellifera subspecies.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the cavity-nesting honeybee, Apis koschevnikovi (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae).

Project description:In this study, we analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the cavity-nesting honeybee, A. koschevnikovi. The mitochondrial genome of A. koschevnikovi was observed to be a circular molecule of 15,278 bp and was similar to that of the other cavity-nesting honeybee species. The average AT content in the A. koschevnikovi mitochondrial genome was 84%. It was predicted to contain 13 protein-coding, 24 tRNA and two rRNA genes, along with one A + T-rich control region, besides three tRNA-Met repeats.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Japanese honeybee, Apis cerana japonica (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae).

Project description:In this study, we analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the Japanese honeybee Apis cerana japonica. The mitochondrial genome of A. c. japonica is a circular molecule of 15 917 bp and is similar to that of A. c. cerana. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and one A + T-rich control region. All protein-coding genes are initiated by ATT and ATG codons and are terminated by the typical stop codon TAA or TAG, except for the start codon of ATP8 which ends with C. All tRNA genes typically form a cloverleaf secondary structure, except for tRNA-Ser (AGN).

This mitochondrial genome is 16,589 bp in length with 37 classical eukaryotic mitochondrial genes and an A + T-rich region. Gene directions and arrangements are similar to those of other Apis mitogenomes. Seven genes begin with ATT, four with ATG, and two with ATA (none with ATC) and all genes terminate with TAA.

A phylogenetic tree showed that A.m. lamarckii clusters with other A. mellifera subspecies, as expected.
