The complete mitochondrial genome of Leptopilina syphax (Hymenoptera: Figitidae).

ABSTRACT: Leptopilina syphax (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) is a newly recorded species of parasitic wasp, and it attacks the larval stage of Drosophilidae, mainly the Drosophila species. Few works have been done in the basic study of L. syphax, including the data of mitochondrial genome. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of L. syphax (GeneBank accession number: MT649407) was sequenced using Illumina HiSeq X Ten system. The mitochondrial genome is 15,882bp long and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 22 transfer RNA genes. Meanwhile, 26 genes are in majority strand, and the remaining 11 genes are in minority strand. The overall base composition is 41.7% for A, 6.0% for G, 13.6% for C, and 38.7% for T, with an A + T content of 80.4%, respectively. We also performed a phylogenetic analysis with other known mitochondrial genomes of some parasitic wasps. The results show that L. syphax is closely related to L. boulardi, which is another Drosophila parasitoid.

The rearranged mitochondrial genome of Leptopilina boulardi (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), a parasitoid wasp of Drosophila.

Project description:The partial mitochondrial genome sequence of Leptopilina boulardi (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) was characterized. Illumina sequencing was used yielding 35,999,679 reads, from which 102,482 were utilized in the assembly. The length of the sequenced region of this partial mitochondrial genome is 15,417 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding, two rRNA, and 21tRNA genes (the trnaM failed to be sequenced) and a partial A+T-rich region. All protein-coding genes start with ATN codons. Eleven protein-coding genes presented TAA stop codons, whereas ND6 and COII that presented TA, and T nucleotides, respectively. The gene pattern revealed extensive rearrangements compared to the typical pattern generally observed in insects. These rearrangements involve two protein-coding and two ribosomal genes, along with the 16 tRNA genes. This gene order is different from the pattern described for Ibalia leucospoides (Ibaliidae, Cynipoidea), suggesting that this particular gene order can be variable among Cynipoidea superfamily members. A maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis of the main groups of Apocrita was performed using amino acid sequence of 13 protein-coding genes, showing monophyly for the Cynipoidea superfamily within the Hymenoptera phylogeny.

Absence of complementary sex determination in two Leptopilina species (Figitidae, Hymenoptera) and a reconsideration of its incompatibility with endosymbiont-induced thelytoky.

Project description:Complementary sex determination (CSD) is a widespread sex determination mechanism in haplodiploid Hymenoptera. Under CSD, sex is determined by the allelic state of one or multiple CSD loci. Heterozygosity at one or more loci leads to female development, whereas hemizygosity of haploid eggs and homozygosity of diploid eggs results in male development. Sexual (arrhenotokous) reproduction normally yields haploid male and diploid female offspring. Under asexual reproduction (thelytoky), diploidized unfertilized eggs develop into females. Thelytoky is often induced by bacterial endosymbionts that achieve egg diploidization by gamete duplication. As gamete duplication leads to complete homozygosity, endosymbiont-induced thelytokous reproduction is presumed to be incompatible with CSD, which relies on heterozygosity for female development. Previously, we excluded CSD in four Asobara (Braconidae) species and proposed a two-step mechanism for Wolbachia-induced thelytoky in Asobara japonica. Here, we conclusively reject CSD in two cynipid wasp species, Leptopilina heterotoma and Leptopilina clavipes. We further show that thelytoky in L. clavipes depends on Wolbachia titer but that diploidization and feminization steps cannot be separated, unlike in A. japonica. We discuss what these results reveal about the sex determination mechanism of L. clavipes and the presumed incompatibility between CSD and endosymbiont-induced thelytoky in the Hymenoptera.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Bombus breviceps (Hymenoptera: Apidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Bombus breviceps, which belongs to the subgenus of Alpigenobombus in Bombus genus, was sequenced. This circular mitogenome is 16,743 bp (83.5% AT) in length, with two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 13 protein-coding genes. All protein-coding genes are initiated with the common invertebrate initiation codon except TTA for ND2, and terminated by the typical stop codon TAA or TAG. tRNA-Ser (TCT) lacks a dihydrouridine (DHU) arm while other tRNA genes form a cloverleaf structure. Phylogenetic analysis shows that genus Bombus has a closer relationship with genus Melipona than any other genera in Apidae family, and B. breviceps clusters closer to B. lapidarius than any other bumblebees with sequenced mitogenome.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Bombus consobrinus (Hymenoptera: Apidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Bombus consobrinus was sequenced. This circular mitogenome is 17,966 bp (86.7% of AT) in length, which contains 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes and two rRNA genes.

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Tapinoma melanocephalum (Hymenoptera: Formicidae).

Project description:Tapinoma melanocephalum is a ubiquitous invasive species and widely distributed in subtropical and tropical regions around the world. Here, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of T. melanocephalum. This mitogenome was 15,499 bp long and encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 2 ribosomal RNA unit genes (rRNAs). Compared to other Formicidae species, gene order of T. melanocephalum was not conserved and one tRNA cluster trnW-trnC-trnY converted to trnW-trnY-trnC. The whole mitogenome exhibited heavy AT nucleotide bias (79.5%). All PCGs started with the standard ATN codons. Except for cox1 and nad5 end with the incomplete codon T-, all PCGs terminated with the stop codon TAA. Phylogenetic analysis showed that T. melanocephalum got together with three same subfamily Dolichoderinae species and one Dorylinae species, indicating the close relationship of Dolichoderinae and Dorylinae.

The mitochondrial genome is 16,375 bp long and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. Among them, 24 genes are in majority strand, while the others are in minority strand. The nucleotide composition of A, G, C, T is 44.9%, 6.4%, 5.6%, 43.2% respectively. We also performed a phylogenetic analysis with other known mitochondrial genomes within four families that have been shown to parasitize drosophilid species. The result shows that T. drosophilae is closely related to Ismarus sp.
