Complete mitochondrial genomes of two moths in the tribe Trichaeini (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) and their phylogenetic implications.

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genomes of two Prophantis species in the tribe Trichaeini (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) were sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technology. They were assembled and annotated: The complete mitogenomes of P. octoguttalis and P. adusta were 15,197 and 15,714 bp, respectively, and contain 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and an A + T-rich region. Their arrangement was consistent with the first sequenced mitogenome of Bombyx mori (Bombycidae) in Lepidoptera, which had the trnM-trnI-trnQ rearrangement. The nucleotide composition was obviously AT-biased, and all PCGs, except for the cox1 gene (CGA), used ATN as the start codon. Except for trnS1, which lacked
