The complete mitochondrial genome of Rotunda rotundapex (Miyata & Kishida, 1990) (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).

ABSTRACT: Rotunda rotundapex (Miyata & Kishida, 1990) is a silk moth identified in Korea. We completed its mitochondrial genome which is 15,298 bp long and the shortest mitogenome of Bombycidae s.str. It includes 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and a control region. Comparison with COI sequence of Taiwan isolate suggests the Korean population of this species can be a novel species. Gene order of R. rotundapex mitogenome is conserved as in other Bombycidae species. Phylogenetic trees show that R. rotundapex is closely related to genus Rondotia.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Rondotia menciana (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).

Project description:The mulberry white caterpillar, Rondotia menciana Moore (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) is a species with closest relationship with Bombyx mori and Bombyx mandarina, and the genetic information of R. menciana is important for understanding the diversity of the Bombycidae. In this study, the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of R. menciana was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and sequenced. The mitogenome of R. menciana was determined to be 15,301 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and an AT-rich region. The A+T content (78.87%) was lower than that observed for other Bombycidae insects. All PCGs were initiated by ATN codons and terminated with the canonical stop codons, except for coxII, which was terminated by a single T. All the tRNA genes displayed a typical clover-leaf structure of mitochondrial tRNA. The length of AT-rich region (360 bp) of R. menciana mitogenome is shorter than that of other Bombycidae species. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the R. menciana was clustered on one branch with B. mori and B. mandarina from Bombycidae.

The Immature Stages, Biology, and Phylogenetic Relationships of Rotunda rotundapex (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).

Project description:The life history, morphology, and biology of the immature stages and phylogenetic relationships of Rotunda rotundapex (Miyata & Kishida, 1990) are described and illustrated for the first time. The species is univoltine: eggs hatch in spring (March or April) and the life cycle from egg to adult is completed in about 3 wk, with larvae developing rapidly on young leaves of the host plants, Morus australis and to a lesser extent Broussonetia monoica (Moraceae), and adults emerging in April-May. Eggs are laid in clusters on twigs of the host plant, are covered by scales during female oviposition, and remain in diapause for the remainder of the year (i.e., for 10-11 mo). Larvae (all instars) are unique among the Bombycidae in that they lack a horn on abdominal segment 8. A strongly supported molecular phylogeny based on six genes (5.0 Kbp: COI, EF-1α, RpS5, CAD, GAPDH, and wgl) representing seven genera of Bombycinae from the Old World revealed that Rotunda is a distinct monotypic lineage sister to Bombyx. This phylogenetic position, together with morphological data of the immature stages (egg and larval chaetotaxy), supports the current systematic classification in which the species rotundapex has been placed in a separate genus (Rotunda) from Bombyx in which it was previously classified.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Bombyx lemeepauli (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) and its phylogenetic relationship.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Bombyx lemmepauli Lemée has been sequenced with 15,801 bp in length (Genbank no. KY620270), and has a base composition of A (43.17%), G (7.40%), C (11.90%), and T (37.86%). Similar to other bombyciod species, it contains a typically conserved structure including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and an A + T-rich region. Excepting cox1 started with CGA, the start codons of the other 12 PCGs were ATN. Eleven of the 13 PCGs ended with TAA, expect for cox1 and cox2, which ended with a single T. The complete mitogenome sequence provided here would be useful for further understanding the evolutional position of B. lemeepauli, which is a key species to relate the famous resource insect B. mori and the important insect pest Rondotia menciana (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).

Complete mitochondrial genome of the highly fecund Bombyx mori linnaeus, 1758 (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) strain Jam 146.

Project description:To meet the increasing demands of the society in the current era, new strains of the domesticated silkworm Bombyx mori Linnaeus, 1758 (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) are being continuously bred. Consequently, cataloging the genetic information of pure lines is essential. The strain Jam 146, whose larvae have atypical pale, crescent-shaped body markings, is an important breeding resource due to its excellent fecundity. In this study, we sequenced the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of this strain using next-generation sequencing. The complete genome of this strain has a gene arrangement typical of Lepidoptera. The length of the Jam 146 mitogenome (15,661 bp) is well within the range reported in other B. mori strains, i.e. between 15,629 (Baiyun strain, China) and 15,676 bp (Hukpyobeom strain, South Korea). However, the total length of protein-coding genes, 3,733 codons in Jam 146 and two other silkworm strains previously reported from South Korea, is 13 codons longer than that in other B. mori strains. Phylogenetic analysis of 22 silkworm strains from nine countries showed that the Jam 146 strain forms a strong cluster with three other strains from China, Japan, and South Korea, suggesting that after their split from a common ancestor, the evolutionary divergence among the silkworm strains in these countries has been limited.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the silkworm strain, Chilseongjam Bombyx mori (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae), with a unique larval body marking.

Project description:Recently, a new silkworm strain with a peculiar larval marking and rare cocoon colour was bred in Korea for educational learning and exhibition. In order to obtain the genetic information of the newly bred strain, Chilseongjam Bombyx mori (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae), its complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) was sequenced. The mitogenome is 15,660 bp in length, contains a typical set of genes, and has gene arrangement and composition typical of Lepidoptera. However, the Chilseongjam strain mitogenome is 4-36 bp longer than 19 other strains originating from other countries and 16 bp shorter than the whole genome of a Korean Hukpyobeom strain. In particular, the Chilseongjam strain has an intergenic spacer sequence that is shorter than that of the Hukpyobeom strain at the tRNAHis and ND4 junction as it has fewer microsatellite-like AT repeats. Phylogenetic analyses conducted using a total of 21 silkworm strains originating from nine countries revealed a few subgroups with moderate-to-high nodal support (80-94%). The Korean Chilseongjam strain formed a relatively strong subgroup (85%) with a Japanese strain (J106) instead of the Korean Hukpyobeom strain.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Cnidocampa flavescens (Lepidoptera: Limacodidae).

Project description:Cnidocampa flavescens, lives in Nepal, Bhutan, China, Far East of Russia, Korea, and Japan, belongs to the Lepidoptera family Limacodidae. In this study, we describe the genomic features of the mitogenome sequences of the insects. The mitogenome of C. flavescens is 15,406 bp long consisting a typical set of genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes) and one major 415 bp non-coding A + T-rich region. All PCGs of C. flavescens start with ATN codons and end with TAA codons. The gene arrangement of C. flavescens mitogenome is same to Monema flavescens while the intergenic spacers and overlaps are different. The 415 bp A + T-rich region contains a conserved ATAGA motif followed a poly-T stretch.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Acanthopsyche nigraplaga (Lepidoptera: Psychidae).

Project description:We report the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of a case-making moth Acanthopsyche nigraplaga Wileman, 1911 (Lepidoptera: Psychidae). The 15,704 bp long complete mitogenome comprises a typical set of genes [13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes] and one major non-coding, A + T-rich region, with an arrangement identical to that observed in most lepidopteran mitogenomes. Twelve of the 13 PCGs of the A. nigraplaga mitogenome initiate with a typical ATN start codon, however COI contains the atypical CGA start codon that is common for lepidopteran COI genes. A phylogenetic analysis using concatenated nucleotide sequences of the 13 PCGs and 2 rRNA genes using the Bayesian inference method fully resolved A. nigraplaga in a monophyletic clade within the Psychidae. Acanthopsyche nigraplaga was situated in a sister position to Eumeta variegata and Mahasena oolona with high nodal support. As more mitogenome sequences are available further scrutinized analysis for the superfamily Tineoidea including Psychidae will be possible.
