Complete mitogenomes of two major dengue vectors Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus from Bangladesh: Insights from comparative genomics with global mitogenome diversity and phylogenetics.

ABSTRACT: Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are the most competent vectors of multiple human arboviral diseases, posing a global public health concern, particularly in Bangladesh. While there are numerous genomic resources available worldwide, the genomic resources from Southeast Asian countries are scarce. Current study reported the first characterization of the complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus from Bangladesh. The circular mitogenomes are 16,662 bp and 16,585 bp in size, with AT contents of 79.02% and 78.81%, respectively. Both mitogenomes contain all 37 functional subunits, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and a control region. We also reported the unique codon usage and Relative synonymous codo
