The complete mitochondrial genome of Odontothrips loti (Haliday, 1852) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae).

ABSTRACT: Odontothrips loti (Haliday, 1852) is an important insect pest of Medicago sativa. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of O. loti (GenBank Accession number: MN584901) was sequenced using Illumina HiSeq X Ten. The genome is 15,584 bp long and comprises 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and putative control region (CR). The nucleotide composition of O. loti mitochondrial genome is 41.18% of A, 34.45% of T, 12.72% of C, and 11.64% of G. The CR, located between tRNA-Thr and ND5, is 651 bp long. The length of 22 tRNAs range from 56 bp to 69 bp. The two rRNAs were located on the H-strand of which one was 1127 bp (16S rRNA) long and another was 732 bp (12S rRNA) long. Phylogenetic analysis showed that O. loti is closely related to Frankliniella intonsa and Frankliniella occidentalis. These new mitochondrial genome data are more complete and can be better used to provide a basis for studies of the mitochondrial evolution of Odontothrips.
