Sequencing and analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Laothoe amurensis sinica (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) from China and its phylogenetic analysis
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Laothoe amurensis sinica (Rothschild & Jordan, 1903) was sequenced. The L. amurensis sinica mitogenome is circular, double-stranded, with length of 15,341 bp. Gene content, gene order and orientation are all typical of Sphingidae. Nucleotide comp...

| Summary: | The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Laothoe amurensis sinica (Rothschild & Jordan, 1903) was sequenced. The L. amurensis sinica mitogenome is circular, double-stranded, with length of 15,341 bp. Gene content, gene order and orientation are all typical of Sphingidae. Nucleotide composition is highly biased toward A + T nucleotides (79.2%). Most of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) initiate with the standard start codon of ATN and terminate with the typical stop codon TAA/TAG or incomplete T. Phylogenetic analyses based on the maximum-likelihood (ML) on the W-IQ-Tree web server showed that L. amurensis sinica have a close relationship to the lineage formed by Clanis bilineata and Leucophlebia lineata. |
