Project description:Muscina pascuorum (Diptera: Muscidae) represents an important hygiene pest. The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of M. pascuorum was first sequenced and annotated in this study. The full length of mitogenome was 14, 940 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and one AT-rich region. The nucleotide content of these flies was 40.0% A, 13.2% C, 9.1% G, and 37.6% T. This study illustrates that the arrangement of the genes was identical to classical metazoans. Besides, the phylogenetic analyses indicated that the branch of M. pascuorum was clustered separately from the common three Muscina spp in the tree. This genome provides an essential reference for understanding the phylogenetic relationships of Muscidae.
Project description:We present a genome assembly from an individual female Bombus pascuorum (the Common Carder Bee; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Apidae). The genome sequence is 307.5 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 17 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 21.9 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 12,999 protein coding genes.
