Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Loxocephala perpunctata (Hemiptera: Eurybrachidae).

ABSTRACT: In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Loxocephala perpunctata (Jacobi, 1944) (Hemiptera: Eurybrachidae). The mitogenome of L. perpunctata is 15,017 bp long and includes 37 genes and a large control region. Consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a D-loop. All protein-coding genes have the usual ATN start codons, except for ND5, which uses the noncanonical codon GTG. 22 tRNAs, the length ranging from 59 to 69 bp, having the clover-leaf structure except for the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm of trnS2 forming a simple loop.
