Sequencing and characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Pseudoregma bambucicola (Hemiptera: Hormaphidinae) from Guizhou, China.

ABSTRACT: The bamboo aphids, Pseudoregma spp., are the commonest insect pests found in ornamental bamboos throughout southeastern Asia. In this study, the mitochondrial genome of a representative of Pseudoregma bambucicola isolated from the bamboo Bambusa multiplexcv in Guizhou of China was determined through Illumina MiSeq platform. The entire genome was 16,705 bp in length and encoded 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes. The phylogeneric analysis showed that the P. bambucicola (Guizhou isolate) clustered together with another two isolates from Sichuan and Fujian of China, respectively, and together formed a monophyletic relationship with Hormaphis betulae in Hormaphidinae. The mitochondrial DNA data presented here should contribute to future molecular identification, population genetic, and evolutionary biological studies of P. bambucicola.
