Project description:The stonefly Suwallia bimaculata belongs to the Chloroperlidae. The mitogenome of S. bimaculata was sequenced and annotated, the new representative of the complete mitogenome of the genus Suwallia. The entire genome of S. bimaculata is 16,125?bp totally with an A?+?T content of 68.5%, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a 1,210?bp control region. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Plecoptera. Most PCGs use typical start/stop codon, whereas ND5 use GTG as start codon. And, COII and ND5 stopped with incomplete terminaton signal T. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using the Bayesian (BI) method and Maximum-likelihood (ML) methods based on 13 protein-coding genes and two ribosomal RNAs showed that S. bimaculata was the sister group to Suwallia teleckojensis and the clade Suwallia was closely to four perlodid species. More chloroperlid data was needed for further study of phylogeny in Chloroperlidae.
Project description:The mitochondrial genome sequence of Xanthomantis bimaculata (Mantodea: Iridopterygidae) from Yunnan, China is a circular molecule with the typical insect mitochondrial gene arrangement, which is 15,941 bp in length and contains 22 tRNAs, two rRNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, and one control region. The overall AT content of the mitogenome is 73.12% (A = 37.58%, T = 35.54%, C = 16.54%, G = 10.34%). In BI and ML phylogenetic analyses, X. bimaculata was a sister clade to Sceptuchus simplex. The monophyly of the families Iridopterygidae, Thespidae and Liturgusidae were supported.
