Complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the giant water bug Kirkaldyia deyrolli (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae).

ABSTRACT: Giant water bugs (genus Kirkaldyia and Lethocerus) are well known species from aquatic habitats throughout the world's subtropical and tropical areas. Only one species of the Kirkaldyia deyrolli is distributed in Japan. K. deyrolli has been designated as second category rare species according Law for Conservation of Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora in Japan, in 2019. We analyzed, for the first time, the complete mitochondrial genomes of the giant water bug K. deyrolli from Japan using next-generation sequencing. The mitochondrial genome was a circular and 15,579 bp molecule that included 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes, along with one AT-rich control region. The AT content value was 69.55%. The heavy strand was predicted to have nine PCGs and 15 tRNA genes, whereas the light strand was predicted to contain four PCGs, seven tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes. Start codons were variable for all PCGs: four ATA, three ATC, four ATG, two ATT genes as the start codon. Stop codons were of two types: TAA for 12 genes and TAG for one gene. Incomplete stop codon T was identified. The molecular phylogenetic relationship, inferred using 13 PCGs, was consistent with that reported in previous studies, which predicted a sister relationship to the genus Lethocerus.

The mitochondrial genome of a giant water bug Lethocerus deyrollei (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae) from South Korea.

Project description:A giant water bug Lethocerus deyrollei (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae) is a large, predatory, and nocturnal hemipteran insect, which has been considered threatened and thus enrolled as an endangered species in South Korea and Japan. Here, we characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of L. deyrollei, which has a circular form with 19,295 bp in length, which is the longest when compared to those of the 111 hemipteran species reported so far. Its longest genome size is due to the extremely extended CR (4686 bp), which is much longer than those of China and Japan. It consisted of a total of 37 genes (13 PCGs, 22 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes) and one control region (CR). The genome composition and gene order were identical to those previously reported from the same species of China and Japan with over 99.7% sequence similarities except for CR and trnI. The nucleotide composition was highly A + T biased, accounting for 71% of the whole mitochondrial genome, as in other species of Nepoidea. Based on the aa sequences of 13 PCGs, we reconstructed a maximum likelihood tree, which indicated that the three mitochondrial genomes of L. deyrollei from South Korea, China, and Japan are grouped, and also Lethocerus, Belostomatidae, Nepoidea, Nepomorpha, Heteroptra are strong monophyletic groups, respectively.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Appasus japonicus Vuillefroy, 1864 (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae).

Project description:We describe the initial sequencing and assembly of the complete mitochondrial genome of Appasus japonicus Vuillefroy, 1864 (Hemiptera; Belostomatidae; Appasus). The mitochondrial genome of A. japonicus was found to be 18,608 bp. It contains thirteen protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and an AT-rich region. The overall base composition of A. japonicus is A-41.9%, C-17.5%, G-11.9%, and T-28.7%. A phylogenetic analysis of 21 species within the order Hemiptera suggests that Diplonychus rusticus is most closely related to A. japonicus.

The architecture and complete sequence of mitochondrial genome of an assassin bug Agriosphodrus dohrni (Hemiptera: Reduviidae).

Project description:The 16, 470 bp nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of an assassin bug from the reduviid subfamily Harpactorinae, Agriosphodrus dohrni, has been revealed. The entire genome encodes for two ribosomal RNA genes (rrnL and rrnS), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and a control region. The nucleotide composition is biased toward adenine and thymine (A+T = 72.2%). Comparative analysis with two other reduviid species Triatoma dimidiata and Valentia hoffmanni, exhibited highly conserved genome architectures including genome contents, gene order, nucleotide composition, codon usage, amino acid composition, as well as genome asymmetry. All protein-coding genes use standard mitochondrial initiation codons (methionine and isoleucine), except that nad1 starts with GTG. All tRNAs have the classic clover-leaf structure, except that the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm of tRNA(Ser(AGN)) forms a simple loop. Secondary structure comparisons of the two mitochondrial ribosomal subunits among sequenced assassin bugs show that the sequence and structure of rrnL is more conservative than that of rrnS. The presence of structural elements in the control region is also discussed, with emphasis on their implications in the regulation of replication and/or transcription of the reduviid mitogenome. The phylogenetic analyses indicated that within Reduviidae, Harpactorinae is a sister group to the Salyavatinae + Triatominae clade.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the damsel bug Alloeorhynchus bakeri (Hemiptera: Nabidae).

Project description:The complete sequence of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of the damsel bug, Alloeorhynchus bakeri, has been completed and annotated in this study. It represents the first sequenced mitochondrial genome of heteropteran family Nabidae. The circular genome is 15, 851 bp in length with an A+T content of 73.5%, contains the typical 37 genes that are arranged in the same order as that of the putative ancestor of hexapods. Nucleotide composition and codon usage are similar to other known heteropteran mitochondrial genomes. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) use standard initiation codons (methionine and isoleucine), except COI, which started with TTG. Canonical TAA and TAG termination codons are found in eight protein-coding genes, the remaining five (COI, COII, COIII, ND5, ND1) have incomplete termination codons (T or TA). PCGs of two strands present opposite CG skew which is also reflected by the nucleotide composition and codon usage. All tRNAs have the typical clover-leaf structure, except the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm of tRNA(Ser (AGN))which forms a simple loop as known in many other metazoa. Secondary structure models of the ribosomal RNA genes of A. bakeri are presented, similar to those proposed for other insect orders. There are six domains and 45 helices and three domains and 27 helices in the secondary structures of rrnL and rrnS, respectively. The major non-coding region (also called control region) between the small ribosomal subunit and the tRNA(Ile )gene includes two special regions. The first region includes four 133 bp tandem repeat units plus a partial copy of the repeat (28 bp of the beginning), and the second region at the end of control region contains 4 potential stem-loop structures. Finally, PCGs sequences were used to perform a phylogenetic study. Both maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analyses highly support Nabidae as the sister group to Anthocoridae and Miridae.

The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Plant Bug Lygus pratensis Linnaeus (Hemiptera: Miridae).

Project description:Lygus pratensis is a phytophagous pest responsible for yield losses in Bt alfalfa and other economic crops in Northwestern China. To better characterize Miridae at the genomic level, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of L. pratensis was sequenced and analyzed in this study. The mt genome was amplified via the polymerase chain reaction to generate overlapping fragments. These fragments were then sequenced, spliced, and analyzed to include the examination of nucleotide composition, codon usage, compositional biases, protein-coding genes (PCGs), and RNA secondary structures. Phylogenetic relationships between L. pratensis and other species in different Heteroptera families were also examined. The mt genome was found to be a typical circular genome with a length of 16,591 bp and a total AT content of 75.1%, encoded for 13 PCGs, 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNAs (lrRNA and srRNA), and a noncoding control region. The nucleotide composition of the entire mt genome was heavily biased toward A and T. All of the tRNAs were predicted to have classic clover leaf structures, but three of the tRNAs (tRNAAsn, tRNAHis, tRNAHis) were missing the T?C loop. The control region (2,017 bp), which was found to be located between 12S and tRNAIle, contained three tandem repeat elements. Phylogenetic analyses showed that L. pratensis is closely related to the other three examined Lygus bugs, and that it is a sister group to Apolygus and Adelphocoris. This study confirms the usability of the mt genome in phylogenesis studies pertaining to the Lygus genus, within Miridae.
