The genetic variations in the mitochondrial genomes of three Luciolinae fireflies.

ABSTRACT: This paper studied the complete mitochondrial genomes of three fireflies, Pygoluciola qingyu, Emeia pseudosauteri and Abscondita terminalis. We discussed the variations in the mitochondrial genomes of samples of each firefly from different populations. The mitochondrial genomes of Abs. terminalis and P. qingyu are very stable among their different populations. The mitochondrial genome of E. pseudosauteri shows some variations among the different populations, especially in the COI sequence.
