The complete mitochondrial genome of Helophilus virgatus (Diptera: Syrphidae: Eristalinae) with a phylogenetic analysis of Syrphidae.

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Helophilus virgatus (Coquilletti, 1898) was sequenced. Its whole mitogenome was 15,742?bp in length, and all 37 genes were in the ancestral gene arrangement. ATN was used as start codon in most of PCGs except for ND1 and COX1, which used TTG. Besides, ATP8, ND3, ND5, and ND6 ended with an incomplete T, the others used TAA as termination codons. A phylogenetic tree based on 13 PCGs from 14 species (11 Syrphidae and 3 outgroup species) shows that Syrphinae and Eristalinae form a sister group, and supports the monophyly of Syrphidae.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Platycheirus albimanus (Diptera: Syrphidae: Syrphinae) and phylogenetic analysis of the Syrphidae.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Platycheirus albimanus (Fabricius, 1781) was sequenced. The length of the mitogenome is 16,648 bp and consists of 37 genes including 22 transfer RNA (tRNAs), 13 protein-coding (PCGs) and 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNAs). The 13 PCGs initiate with the start codon ATN, except for COX1 and ATP6 which use TTG. All of the PCGs ended with TAA, apart from ND4 and ND4L terminated by incomplete T--. The ML tree based on complete mitogenomes from 25 species (22 Syrphidae and 3 outgroup taxa) suggests that the tribe Melanostomini is more closely related to the Syrphini. The phylogenetic analysis supports the monophyly of Syrphinae, and the paraphyly of the Eristalinae. This mitogenome information for P. albimanus could facilitate future studies of evolutionarily related insects.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Eristalia cerealis (Diptera: Syrphidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Eristalia cerealis was sequenced and reported here. The circle genome of the syrphid fly is 15,348 bp in length. There are 38 sequence elements including 13 protein coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region. The order of all elements was the same with that of E. tenax. With 2 species from Muscidae and Drosophilidae as outgroups, phylogenetic relationships of 10 Syrphidae species based on mitogenomes were in complete agreement with their taxonomic relationships based on morphological characteristics. Our result will provide more fundamental data to the development of the molecular systematics of Syrphidae.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Melanostoma mellinum (Linnaeus, 1758) (Diptera: Syrphidae) and phylogenetic analysis.

Project description:In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Melanostoma mellinum (Linnaeus, 1758) was sequenced using the-next generation sequencing technology. The assembled mitogenome of M. mellinum has a total length of 16,055bp and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs). The results of phylogenetic reconstruction based on the combined mitochondrial gene dataset indicated that M. mellinum belongs to Melanostoma genus with a close relationship to Melanostoma orientale, but the monophyly of the tribe Bacchini is not well supported.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Syritta pipiens (Linnaeus, 1758) (Diptera: Syrphidae) and phylogenetic analysis.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Syritta pipiens (Linnaeus, 1758) was sequenced with 15,745 bp in length including 37 genes and a non-coding region. The overall nucleotide composition showed a strong AT bias. Most protein-coding genes (PCGs) used ATN as the start codon while ATP6 and ND1 used TTG, and stopped by TAA or TAG but ND5 ended with an incomplete T. Phylogenetic trees were reconstructed based on the 24 complete mitochondrial sequences from Syrphidae using the methods of maximum-likelihood (ML) and Bayesian inference (BI), resulted in S. pipiens clustered into the clade of Eristalinae, which conformed to the traditional classification, but the trees did not support the monophyly of Eristalinae. More molecular data is needed for further study.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Syrphus ribesii (Diptera: Syrphoidea: Syrphidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Syrphus ribesii was determined in this study. The double-stranded circular DNA molecule was 16,530 bp in length, containing 37 typical genes: 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and an A + T-rich region. Thirteen PCGs were 11,196 bp in size, encoding 3720 amino acids in total. All the PCGs started with ATN, except the COI used TTG as its initiation codon. Most PCGs terminated with standard codon TAA, while the COI ended with T and the ND5 ended with TA. The lrRNA and srRNA genes were 1341 bp and 793 bp in length, respectively. The A + T-rich region harbored some typical structures characteristic of the dipterans. The phylogenetic tree showed that Syrphus ribesii was closely related to Eupeodes corollae, and the Syrphidae and Pipunculidae constituted a monophyletic group within the Syrphoidea.

Characterization and Phylogenetic Implications of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Syrphidae.

Project description:In this study, the complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of two hoverfly species of Korinchia angustiabdomena (Huo, Ren, and Zheng) and Volucella nigricans Coquillett (Diptera: Syrphidae) were determined and analyzed. The circular mitogenomes were 16,473 bp in K. angustiabdomena (GenBank No. MK870078) and 15,724 bp in V. nigricans (GenBank No. MK870079). Two newly sequenced mitogenomes both contained 37 genes, and the gene order was similar with other syrphine species. All the protein-coding genes (PCGs) were started with the standard ATN codons; and most of PCGs were terminated with a TAA stop codon, while ND1 in K. angustiabdomena ended with a TAG codon, and ND5 terminated with truncated T stop codons in both species. The phylogenetic relationship between K. angustiabdomena and V. nigricans with related lineages was reconstructed using Bayesian inference and Maximum-likelihood analyses. The monophyly of each family considered within Muscomorpha was confirmed by the clades in the phylogenetic tree, and superfamily of the Oestroidea (Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae, and Oestridae) was unexpectedly found to be a paraphyletic group based on our selected data. This mitogenome information for K. angustiabdomena and V. nigricans could facilitate future studies of evolutionarily related insects.

Eighteen mitochondrial genomes of Syrphidae (Insecta: Diptera: Brachycera) with a phylogenetic analysis of Muscomorpha.

Project description:In this study, 18 mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of Syrphidae were sequenced. These mitogenomes ranged from 15,648 to 16,405 bp and contained 37 genes that were similar to those from other Syrphidae species. Most protein-coding genes (PCGs) started with a standard ATN codon and ended with TAA/G. All transfer RNAs (tRNAs) could be folded into the cloverleaf secondary structure except tRNA-Ser (AGN), which lacks a dihydrouridine arm. The secondary structures of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) were predicted. Six domains (III is absent in arthropods) and 44 helices were included in the 16S rRNA, and three domains and 24 helices were included in the 12S rRNA. We found three conserved fragments in all syrphid mitogenomes. Phylogenetic analyses were performed based on the nucleotide data of 13 PCGs and two rRNAs from 76 Muscomorpha and three outgroup species. In results the paraphyly of Aschiza and Schizophora were supported, the Acalyptratae was also paraphyletic but the relationships of its superfamilies were difficult to determine, the monophyly of Calyptratea was supported with the relationships of Oestroidea and Muscoidea need to be further reconsidered. Within Syrphidae the monophyly of family level was supported, the Syrphinae were clustered into one branch, while the paraphyly of Eristalinae was still well supported.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Tachysurus virgatus (Oshima 1926) (Siluriformes: Bagridae) and its phylogenetic status.

Project description:Tachysurus virgatus (Oshima 1926) is a small and benthic Bagridae species that resides in the Southern China and Viet Nam. Currently, limited published genetic information has hindered our understanding of this species. In the current study, the complete mitochondrial genome of T. virgatus was determined using next generation sequencing, which was 16,524 base pairs (bp) in length and identical to most genomes of bony fishes. Phylogenetic analyses supported four clades (I, II, III, and IV) occurring in the family Bagridae and T. virgatus formed an independent clade that was sister to the clades I and II.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence and phylogenetic position of Xylota coquilletti (Soo-Hyun Jeong, Ho-Yeon Han 2019) (Diptera: Syrphidae: Eristalinae: Xylotini).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Xylota coquilletti (Diptera: Syrphidae: Eristalinae: Xylotini) was sequenced and reported for the first time. The whole genome was 15,920 bp in length with the 37 classical eukaryotic mitochondrial genes and a control region. The nucleotide composition was included by 40.5% A, 39.6% T, 11.7% C, and 8.2% G, meaning that A + T (80.1%) was much greater than C + G (19.9%). It consisted of 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), and a control region (CR). Phylogenetic analyses were performed using 13 PCGs and it was found that Xylota coquilletti was sister to Ferdinadea cupera. All this information could complement the mitochondrial data for a new tribe of Eristalinae.
