Exploring the Mitogenomes of Acroneuriinae: The First Report of Gene Rearrangements in Plecoptera Species and Phylogenetic Analyses of Perlidae.

ABSTRACT: Perlidae represents one of the most diverse and ecologically important groups within the order Plecoptera. However, the phylogenetic relationships within Perlidae remain unresolved due to morphological plasticity and the limited availability of molecular data. Here we sequenced and assembled the mitogenome of Hemacroneuria ovalis and Hesperoperla pacifica. By comparing with other published Acroneuriinae mitogenomes, we found that minimal length variation in protein-coding genes (PCGs), transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), whereas the control region (CR) exhibits considerable length divergence. Meanwhile, the mitogenome of Acroneuriinae species is relatively conserved in nucleotide composition and codon usage. The nucleotide diversity (Pi) and Ka/Ks val
