Mitogenome of the stink bug Aelia fieberi (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) and a comparative genomic analysis between phytophagous and predatory members of Pentatomidae.

ABSTRACT: Aelia fieberi Scott, 1874 is a pest of crops. The mitogenome of A. fieberi (OL631608) was decoded by next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome, with 41.89% A, 31.70% T, 15.44% C and 10.97% G, is 15,471 bp in size. The phylogenetic tree showed that Asopinae and Phyllocephalinae were monophyletic; however, Pentatominae and Podopinae were not monophyletic, suggesting that the phylogenetic relationships of Pentatomoidae are complex and need revaluation and revision. Phytophagous bugs had a ~20-nucleotide longer in nad2 than predatory bugs. There were differences in amino acid sequence at six sites between phytophagous bugs and predatory bugs. The codon usage analysis indicated that frequently used codons used either A or T at the third position of the codon. The analysis of amino acid usage s
