Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of a forensically important beetle, Ptomascopus plagiatus (Coleoptera: staphylinidae: silphinae).

ABSTRACT: Ptomascopus plagiatus (Ménétriés, 1854) is a forensically important silphid species. In this study, we report on the mitochondrial genome of P. plagiatus. The complete mitochondrial genome of P. plagiatus is 17556 bp and contains 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, and a 2953 bp noncoding region. The nucleotide composition of P. plagiatus is biased toward A and T (A + T: 77.46%). Phylogenetic analysis based on mitogenomic data supports that P. plagiatus is closely related to (Nicrophorus nepalensis Hope, 1831 + Nicrophorus vespilloides Herbst, 1783) within the subfamily Silphinae.

The complete mitochondrial genome of a rove beetle, Megalinus hunanensis Bordoni, 2013 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae).

Project description:The complete mitogenome of rove beetle Megalinus hunanensis Bordoni, 2013 was determined in this study. It was 17,314 bp in length, and comprised of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a 2511 bp A + T-rich control region. Most PCGs used the typical ATN start codon, except for nad1. Five genes (cox1, cox2, cox3, nad4, and nad5) used a single T residue as stop codon rather than the commonly used TAA or TAG. All tRNAs could be folded into the cloverleaf secondary structure. Bayesian inference phylogenetic trees built on 13 PCGs and their translated amino acid sequences from 29 rove beetle taxa showed that Staphylininae was paraphyletic with respect to Paederinae; M. hunanensis was a member of the tribe Xantholinini.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Aleochara postica Walker, 1858 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Aleochara postica Walker, 1858 was determined in this study. It is 15,473 bps in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a 778 bp A + T-rich control region. Most PCGs use the conventional ATN start codon, except for cox1 and nad1. Two genes (cox1 and cox3) use single T residue as stop codon rather than the routinely used TAA or TAG. All tRNAs, except for TrnS1, exhibit the cloverleaf secondary structure. ML phylogenetic analysis using 13 PCGs of 52 beetle species indicated that A. postica was clustered with other members of the subfamily Aleocharinae as conventional taxonomy predicted.

Complete mitochondrial genome of a leaf beetle, Callispa bowringi (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).

Project description:The complete circular mitochondrial genome of Callispa bowringi was 17,060 bp in length, including two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) and one 2246-bp non-coding AT-rich region. All 22 tRNA genes displayed a typical clover-leaf structure except for tRNASer (AGN). All 13 PCGs initiated with ATN codons. Only three PCGs used the incomplete stop codons "TA" or "T", while ten PCGs terminated with typical stop codons "TAA" and "TGA". Phylogenetic analysis based on 13 PCGs of Chrysomelidae mitogenomes showed that C. bowringi was closely related to Agonita chinensis and Rhadinosa nigrocyanea.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the bamboo snout beetle, Cyrotrachelus buqueti (Coleoptera: Curculionidae).

Project description:The bamboo snout beetle Cyrotrachelus buqueti (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a destructive forest pest and distributed widely in Southeast Asia. The 15,035 bp complete mitochondrial genome of the species consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 21 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs) and a control region (GenBank accession no. MG674390). The trnl gene was not found in the C. buqueti mitogenome. The gene order and the orientation of C. buqueti were similar to those found in other Coleoptera species. The nucleotide composition was significantly biased (A, G, C, and T was 38.18%, 10.10%, 16.16%, and 35.56%, respectively) with A + T contents of 73.74%. ATG, ATA, ATT, AAT, and TTG were initiation codons and TAA, TAG, and T were termination codons. All the 21 tRNAs displayed a typical cloverleaf secondary structure, except for trnS1 which lacked the dihydrouridine arm. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using 13 PCGs with 14 other beetles showed that C. buqueti is closely related to Eucryptorhynchus brandti, which agree with the traditional classification.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the jewel beetle Trachys variolaris (Coleoptera: Buprestidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the jewel beetle, Trachys variolaris, was sequenced and described. The mitogenome of T. variolaris is a typical circular DNA molecule with 16,771 bp in length. It contains the typical 37 mitochondrial genes (13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes) and a long non-coding region called the control region. Twelve protein-coding genes initiate with ATN codons except ND1 uses TTG. Most of the protein-coding genes use TAA or TAG as the stop codon, but COII, COIII, ND4, and ND5 terminate with a single T-- or TA-. The length of the 22 tRNAs ranges from 61 to 70 bp and they all have the clover-leaf structure except for tRNASer(AGN) . The control region is 2155 bp long with the A + T content of 69.4%. The result of our phylogenetic analysis showed that Buprestoidea is monophyletic, and it is the sister group to (Byrrhoidea + Elateroidea).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the jewel beetle, Coraebus cavifrons, was sequenced and described in the present study. The mitogenome of Coraebus cavifrons is a typical circular DNA molecule of 15,686 bp. All of the 37 mitochondrial genes (13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes) were annotated and a putative control region with 1135 bp in length was found between tRNAIle and srRNA. Protein-coding genes all initiate with ATN codons except for COII uses GTG. Most of the protein-coding genes use TAA or TAG as the stop codon, but COII, COIII, and ND5 terminate with a single T. All tRNAs have the clover-leaf structure except for tRNASer(AGN) and the length of them range from 60 to 71 bp. Genome organization and nucleotide composition of the mitogenome were also noted.

Complete mitochondrial genome of a leaf-mining beetle, Podagricomela nigricollis (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).

Project description:Podagricomela nigricollis is a citrus pest that distributes in South China. Currently, there was no complete mitochondrial genome of Podagricomela species available in GenBank. Here, we reported the complete circular mitogenome of P. nigricollis. It had a total length of 16,756 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one A + T-rich region. Among the 13 PCGs, only four (NAD5, NAD4, NAD4l, NAD1) located on the L-strand, whereas the other nine (NAD2, COX1, COX2, ATP8, ATP6, COX3, NAD3, NAD6, COB) located on the H-strand. Phylogenetic analysis using nucleotide sequences of the 13 PCGs indicated that P. nigricollis were clustered with six Galerucinae species, which was consistent with previous morphological classification.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Anobiidae).

Project description:The cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne (Fabricius), is an important pest of stored commodities and distributed widely in the world. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of L. serricorne which was 15,958 bp and composed of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control region. The gene order and orientation of L. serricorne were identical to those of other Coleopteran mitogenomes. ATG, ATA, ATT, ATC, TTG were initiation codons and TAA, TAG, T were termination codons. All 22 tRNA genes were predicted with a typical cloverleaf structure except for trnS1 (AGN). Phylogenetic analysis performed using 13 PCGs with 14 other beetles showed that L. serricorne is closely related to Stegobium paniceum, which agree with the conventional taxonomy.
