The complete mitochondrial genome of the jewel beetle Coraebus cavifrons (Coleoptera: Buprestidae).

ABSTRACT: 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 tRNA^Ile 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 tRNA^Ser(AGN) and the length of them range from
