The complete mitochondrial genome of Pontia edusa (Lepidoptera: Pieridae)
The complete mitochondrial genome of Pontia edusa was sequenced and analyzed in the study. The length of the complete mitogenome is 15,125 bp, including 37 genes and a control region. Twelve genes start with typical ATN, but COI gene initiate with a CGA codon. Twelve of 13 PCGs have a complete stop...

| Summary: | The complete mitochondrial genome of Pontia edusa was sequenced and analyzed in the study. The length of the complete mitogenome is 15,125 bp, including 37 genes and a control region. Twelve genes start with typical ATN, but COI gene initiate with a CGA codon. Twelve of 13 PCGs have a complete stop codon TAA or TAG except for COI has an incomplete stop codon T––. Twenty-one of the 22 tRNAs have a typical clover-leaf secondary structure. The tRNASer(AGN) gene lacked the DHU loop. Bayesian analyses highly support the monophyly of Pieridae. In Pieridae, P. edusa is subordinate to the Pierinae clade. |
