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